Pre-Conference Workshops
| Title |
Assessing Competence: New Perspectives |
| Date | Monday 3 September 2007 |
| Time | 9.00am–5.00pm |
| Facilitators | Gerry Fried, Mark Wiggins, Dan Raemer, Leonie Watterson, Stephanie O'Regan |
| Venue | Queensland Health Skills Development Centre |
| Who Should Attend? | Healthcare clinicians, educators or administrators who are responsible for or interested in performance assessment and certification. |
| Number | Maximum [30] / minimum [10] people |
| Cost | $395 (includes morning/afternoon tea, lunch and course notes) |
| Summary | Demand for valid and reliable assessment methodologies gathers momentum.
Meanwhile, educators seem to generate more questions than solutions. Should we be more,
or less reliant on objective measures? What competencies should we measure? Can we predict performance from measures of competency?
This workshop will begin with an overview of competency and performance assessment in synthetic learning environments, including the limitations of current assessment methodologies and recent advances in this field. Thereafter, it will be presented in four interactive modules; each of which will demonstrate recently developed, or refined methodologies by presenters working in this field. Module topics:

Participants practice hands-on using the provided gelatin products, trauma make-up and Practoplast wounds. |
| Maximum numbers | Numbers are strictly limited to fifteen [15] people per workshop. |
Workshop 2 |
Designing and Evaluating Simulation Scenarios |
| Date | Tuesday 4 September 2007 |
| Time | 11.00am–12.30pm |
| Facilitator | Elyssebeth Leigh |
| Summary | Scenario design is critical to effective learning and
valid, reliable assessment. This workshop draws on experience within
healthcare and non-healthcare sectors to explore good practice in
scenario design and methods of evaluating the effectiveness of
scenarios. Broadly relevant to designers in all simulation
modalities. |
Workshop 3 |
Ask the Experts – Research or Training I am Trying to Do |
| Date | Tuesday 4 September 2007 |
| Time | 11.00am–12.30pm |
| Facilitator | Expert panel: Mark Wiggins, Marcus Watson, Gerry Fried |
| Summary | In this session three delegates will present work in progress. Our expert panelists will facilitate a discussion aimed at guiding the development of the projects. |
Workshop 4 |
Preparing Learners for Simulation Exercise |
| Date | Tuesday 4 September 2007 |
| Time | 1.30pm–3.00pm |
| Facilitators | Dan Raemer |
| Summary | Uses role play and simulation to explore how preparing participants for scenario-based learning influences the effectiveness of their learning. Suitable for any trainers who use scenario-based learning, with manikins or standardised patients, who wish to ensure their learners are oriented and psychologically prepared to be immersed. |
Workshop 5 |
Developing Operational Standards for Facilities |
| Date | Tuesday 4 September 2007 |
| Time | 1.30pm–3.00pm |
| Facilitators | Stephanie O’Regan, Cari Miller, Leonie Watterson |
| Summary | Time to reflect on our own practice? Simulation units are assumed to meet broad institutional standards. But do they and are they always appropriate? This workshop is aimed at simulation providers and will involve hypothetical cases and discussion. Discussion points will be incorporated into a draft standards document, proposed as an initiative of the Australian Society for Healthcare Simulation for 2007-8. |
Workshop 6 |
Getting the Best from Standardised Patients |
| Date | Wednesday 5 September 2007 |
| Time | 11.00am–12.30pm |
| Facilitators | Elizabeth O’Driscoll |
| Summary | This workshop will address key issues relevant to simulation using standardised patients and actors for training and assessment. It is particularly aimed at instructors who work with this simulation modality. |
Workshop 7 |

| Date | Wednesday 5 September 2007 |
| Time | 11.00am–12.30pm |
| Facilitator | Valerie Follows and Michal Wozniak |
| Summary | The simulation scenario is over. The participants are returning to the debrief room. You are rewinding the video tape and collecting your notes for the debriefing. Where do you start to decipher what has gone on? This workshop will use scenarios to develop a structure for analysing scenarios and debriefing themes. |
Workshop 8 |

Workshop 9 |
Using Key Event software |
| Date | Wednesday 5 September 2007 |
| Time | 1.30pm–3.00pm |
| Facilitators | Adam Rehak, Sue Wulf, Chris Carpenter |
| Summary | Computer software that enables marking of key events for later discussion or analysis is growing in popularity. Effective use of this technology requires forward planning and practice and possibly changes in your debriefing approach. In this workshop you will use a variety of sample performance markers and video to explore the issues. |

| Venue | Dwarfed by modern towers of glass and steel, the Customs House
still shines like a beacon on the banks of the Brisbane River. With
work commencing in 1886, this imposing and rare surviving
masterpiece of the Colonial architects Office took three years and
38,346 pounds to build. It is actually older than both City Hall and
the houses with direct river frontage. Opened in 1889, this stately
land mark served as the city's Customs House for almost a century
before the gradual shift of port activities closer to the river
mouth undermined its role. Regular guided tours capture the
building's historic flavour while a display of memorabilia from
those bygone years still stirs the imagination of visitors.
Customs House finally closed in April 1988 and for a while the building's future was uncertain. Then in late 1991 the University of Queensland took over the lease and launched a major restoration program to return the heritage-listed building to its former glory. Three years and $7.5 million later the original style had been faithfully recaptured - but this time subtly blended into a modern, highly functional, multipurpose building for educational and cultural activities. The Customs House is once more a major Brisbane asset. |
