Summary: Simulation-based medical education has been shown to significantly improve the practical and theoretical achievements of medical students, as well as enhance humanistic care and doctor-patient communication. Students who undergo SBME tend to allocate more time for communication with others, leading to improved reflective capacity and overall performance.

Summary: This study surveyed the implementation of SBME in Thai medical schools and identified obstacles, as well as the experiences, expectations, and attitudes of administrators, instructors, and students regarding the current system. The findings showed that SBME was commonly used in teaching and evaluation, but was less utilized in research. Participants believed that SBME improved students' performance, knowledge, and practice. However, there were obstacles such as shortages of faculty and simulators, time and space limitations, inadequate faculty training, and insufficient financial support. Despite these challenges, participants expressed positive attitudes toward SBME.

Summary: In medical education, simulation-based learning activities have a positive impact on student learning outcomes and subjective task values. Students in the simulation group demonstrated better knowledge gain and retention, as well as increased subjective task values, compared to those in the lecture group. These findings highlight the importance of incorporating simulation-based learning experiences in medical education to enhance student learning and motivation.

Summary: The study evaluated the impact of LP training on improving students' theoretical knowledge and practical skills. Students who received simulation training showed significant improvement in their theoretical knowledge and confidence levels, as well as higher success rates in performing LP on patients and lower rates of needing technical assistance compared to the control group. The low participation rate in the study was attributed to students' unfamiliarity with being included in educational studies and the complexity of evaluation in routine clinical practice.

Summary: This study aimed to evaluate the teaching effect of first-aid situation comprehensive simulation-based education (SBE) on clinical medical students. Different levels of situational simulation training were provided for medical students in grades 2-4. The results showed that the comprehensive disciplines module had the highest increase in score, indicating the effectiveness of this training in improving students' proficiency in managing real emergencies.

Summary: The study found that students believed success in SBA increased their confidence and willingness to participate in hospital placements. They considered SBA to have high face validity and reported changes in their practice after its implementation. However, they also found that SBA did not help with their final high-stakes assessments.

Summary: Virtual simulation is an emerging pedagogical strategy that has gained increasing attention in undergraduate medical education. This scoping review analyzed 92 recently published articles to provide an overview of the current trends and effectiveness of virtual simulation in medical teaching and learning. The results indicated a global recognition of virtual simulation's potential in medical education, although there are still challenges to be addressed.

Summary: Simulation training plays an important role in medical education, especially in ophthalmology. This study examined the effects of simulator-based slit lamp training on students' examination skills. The results showed that the simulator group performed significantly better in the slit lamp objective structured clinical examination (OSCE) compared to the traditional group. Simulator training can enhance students' slit lamp examination techniques.

Summary: This article describes simulation-based interprofessional education (IPE) activities in a simulation center involving undergraduate medical students. The majority of activities use high-fidelity approaches with standardized patients and assessment tools with validity evidence. It is recommended that educators incorporate valid assessment tools and target higher level learning outcomes, as well as leverage hybrid models for longitudinal simulation IPE activities.
