Purpose:
The purpose of this presentation is to demonstrate the different levels of realism which can be applied to learning situations in nursing.
Methods: A method of applying realism to a learning experience is through the use of different levels of fidelity.
Results: A direct result of applying realism to a scenario through the use of fidelity could be that the learning experience has permanently etched a concept upon the mind of the student.
Conclusion: When a concept is permanently etched on the mind of a student, that concept will ground the student’s sensory experience furthering the development of critical thinking and assessment skills.
