Post-Simulation Survey

The post-simulation survey is administered after students have completed all assessment associated with the simulations. Some items are also suitable for use during the semester to monitor student progress. The post-simulation survey measures a number of constructs also found on the pre-simulation survey, allowing for benchmarking and comparison of expectations and perceived outcomes/attitudes. Individual scale items can be downloaded by clicking on the links in the table below. For more information about these constructs click here.
