Did you know the Healthcare Simulation Dictionary 3.0 was recently released? The new version has 170 new or revised definitions and over 44 additional simulation-specific terms. In addition, the acronym list was expanded.

I found the definition of distance simulation interesting: “Distributed interactive virtual environments in which those
simulations can be integrated, allowing team collaborative
learning, training, and assessment independent of distance”
(Alverson et al., 2004, p. 8).”

Did you find any terms that were interesting, surprising, or perhaps missing?

I am glad the dictionary has been updated, especially related to VR and VRS (virtual reality sims)!
