CHARM Pad:Prototype System to be Fountain of Nursing Skills

Abstract

The authors are developing a framework to support practice on nursing training with human action model which we proposed as CHARM (Convincing Human Action Rationalized Model). Simulation training has become increasingly popular in healthcare. We developed a framework which applies CHARM to pre-learning and reflection phase in simulation training. Although CHARM is a goal-oriented model, our framework enables transformation of the model from goal-oriented viewpoint to sequence-oriented one, both of which are important to learn nursing care through the simulation. At the same time, our framework deals with reflection learning with the CHARM by incorporating movies which record learners' activities through the training.
