Abstract

The corona pandemic has posed major challenges for teaching with simulated persons (SPs), which usually requires the physical presence of the participants. Within a short period of time, a large number of individual solutions were developed. The committee Simulated Persons of the Society for Medical Education has developed considerations and proposals in five areas to meet the qualitative challenges of the method. First and foremost, the safety of the SPs is at stake, both in terms of infection prevention and role-related stress to which the SPs are now exposed at home alone instead of the usual setting, where they are in a teaching building with the connection to the staff on site. Furthermore, it should be noted that the changed framework conditions also require a reflection on behalf of the learning objectives, since not all teaching scenarios with SPs can be transferred from a real setting to a digital environment. Furthermore, even under corona conditions, the constructive alignment must not be disregarded, i.e. the question of testability must be considered from the very beginning. Aspects of the technical infrastructure for all participants and compliance with data protection requirements must also be considered. Last but not least, the forced changes are also an opportunity to take a proactive approach to the topic of telemedicine in teaching.
