The Simulation on a Social Mission (SoSM) Committee, based at 海角社区鈥檚 Steinberg Centre for Simulation and Interactive Learning, was created in 2019 to support the development of socially accountable simulation-based education.
The SoSM Committee explores how simulation-based education can address local priority concerns and health inequities, bringing the authentic voices and lived experiences of health service users into the programming, and employing transformational learning paradigms to promote critical reflection and action towards social justice.
One of the new educational modalities that the SoSM Committee is investigating is virtual reality (VR) and the role that it can play as an immersive tool to improve education on social issues in health professions education.
We are engaging with the medical community and raising awareness surrounding听issues of social justice by tackling issues that听are equally important at the point-of-care as they are for the communities we serve.听
