Scenario 3C - Role Play


With this technique, participants engage in “role play”, i.e., they put themselves in the shoes of someone else (whose perspective on the content is different from their own) so that they better appreciate the other person’s point of view. There are two phases to this technique: the first phase entails role uptake and study of materials (keeping an eye on the role taken), the second entails producing a common artefact by negotiating with peers its content from the perspective previously assumed. 

This technique has been used in nursing education, for example, in order to recreate meaningful and realistic simulations in mental health nursing. In the example [25] students were allocated professional roles such as the community mental health team manager, community psychiatric nurse, child and family social workers, school safeguarding lead, occupational health nurse, substance misuse nurse, psychiatrist and staff.

FORUM. Use an online forum if you want the discussion among students to happen in asynchronous mode. Watch the following video, if you want to learn how to set up a forum. 

    

    


WEBINAR. Use an online webinar (basic configuration) and/or an online webinar with breakout rooms if you want the discussion among students to happen in synchronous mode. Watch the following videos, if you want to learn how to set up a webinar or a webinar with breakout rooms.
