An Innovative Approach for Using Cross-Cultural, Collaborative Simulation during Undergraduate Nursing Study Abroad Exchanges

Simulation is an accepted teaching pedagogy in nursing education for practice across the continuum of care (National League for Nursing,  2015) that facilitates understanding of clinical situations requiring professional interactions while fostering the growth of professional identity (Kelly, Berragan, Husebø,& Orr, 2016). The process enhances exposure to learning technology experiences with a greater emphasis on evidence and outcome-based education then process-based education (Li, 2021). Simulation provides “near-to-reality patient care scenarios” that can replace or amplify real experiences with supervision in an interactive environment (Brasil et al., 2018).
