Abstract

To address the education needs of International Educated Nurse (IEN) students in Ontario, Canada, we developed a freely available, open-access, editable virtual serious game (VSG) to teach entry to practice nursing competencies. IENs are an underutilized healthcare provider resource in Ontario and Canada in general. Most IENs are not successful in completing the Internationally Educated Nurses Competency Assessment Program (IENCAP); moreover, there are no open-access educational resources available from the College of Nurses of Ontario (CNO). The open-access VSG closed this gap and championed diversity and inclusivity while embracing IEN students’ voices to meet their learning needs and prepare them to practice as a Registered Nurse (RN) or Registered Practical Nurse (RPN) in Ontario. Additionally, the project supported ecampus Ontario and our universities vision for made-in Ontario digital tools for virtual learning, supportive education for labour market reskilling, lifelong learning, and global outreach.

国际教育护士为中心的虚拟严肃游戏

为了满足加拿大安大略省国际教育护士(IEN)学生的教育需求，我们开发了一个免费提供，开放获取，可编辑的虚拟严肃游戏(VSG)来教授实践护理能力的入门。总体而言，IENs是安大略省和加拿大未充分利用的医疗保健提供者资源。大多数ien没有成功完成国际教育护士能力评估计划(IENCAP);此外，安大略护士学院(CNO)没有开放的教育资源。开放获取的VSG弥补了这一差距，倡导多样性和包容性，同时接受IEN学生的声音，以满足他们的学习需求，并为他们作为安大略省注册护士(RN)或注册实用护士(RPN)的实践做好准备。此外，该项目还支持安大略省校园和我们大学的愿景，即安大略省制造的数字工具，用于虚拟学习，支持劳动力市场再培训教育，终身学习和全球推广。
