Abstract

Virtual simulation is a type of simulation that places the participant in a central position, allowing the development of his “decision-making” in dynamic and immersive clinical environments both within and outside the hospital. The appearance of the COVID-19 pandemic and the consequent impossibility of carrying out face-to-face lessons for safety reasons made it necessary to evaluate alternative teaching methods, such as virtual simulation. For this purpose, in the context of the Master's Degree Course in Medicine and Surgery of the Polytechnic University of Marche, it was fundamental and strategic to plan teaching in blended mode to guarantee the achievement of the educational objectives envisaged for the vocational training activities.
