Simulation is an amazing tool but we need to consider it's limitations and try to acknowledge the uncertainties our most junior doctors face. Scott Clarke Edinburgh Medical School #amee2019

Clinical Skills Edin Susie Roy trying out our new VR oxford medical sim kit - the students will love the patient scenarios we love the dinosaurs chasing you !!#vertigo

Including our Edinburgh Clin Ed commentary "Online Learning as Embodied, Socially Meaningful Experience". We argue that trust, relationships, knowing your students & appreciating how digital & non-digital activity are entangled is not only possible but crucial to good online learning.

Thanks Ken Masters for showing the shaky origins of Dale's Cone. But there's a more important reason not to buy into it than lack of evidence: lack of logic. How could these neat numbers possibly be real given the different qualities, purposes, and uses of these methods?

Gangnam style learners are SO hard to design for 😂 #downwithlearningstyles #learningdesign arun pradhan can we have an interpretive dance version of this?

Pleased but torn. Springer ranked my paper link.springer.com/article/10.100… in top 3 in Postdigital Science and Education, but I have a new paper coming out arguing against blindly accepting obscure algorithmic analyses of reductive metrics 😄

Such sad news re Edinburgh EM CSW Jane Murphy who has died from COVID-19. Jane worked in ED when I came to Edinburgh 20 years ago, always had a cheery hello, was there for everybody and introduced me to Haggis sandwiches. She will be very sadly missed. edinburghnews.scotsman.com/health/she-wil…

We're running our ESSCE clinical education summer school today until Wednesday,. covering teaching, learning, simulation, assessment, course design and evaluation. Looking forward to working with all of our participants, local and international!

An interesting conversation came up at the end of day 1 of ESSCE about educational journey vs destination. Means vs ends. Process vs outcome. This was in a #MedEd & health professions context but I’d be interested in thoughts of people in other disciplines / fields.🧵
