Workshop Program: This is the 3nd annual TATRC West / SUMMIT Workshop in conjunction with MMVR at the Hyatt Regency in Long Beach, CA. In 2005, SUMMIT and TATRC West initiated a series of workshops on various aspects of simulations and games for applications in Medicine. The interest has been great, and the responses of participants very positive. This workshop was our final event sponsored by TATRC/SUMMIT.

Game-based Learning February 9, 2007- 1:30 - 3:30
An emerging trend in healthcare training is using videogame and related technologies to create web-based, 3D Virtual World environments that allow users to play the role of healthcare professionals or patients. The mode of engagement is with a computer station and a head-set; healthcare professionals interact in real-time with virtual patients and their colleagues, or patients interact with their diseases, all represented by avatars. We use the Virtual Hospital as a framework to link the many activities of Simulation and Game-based Learning.
