title: A collaborative clinical simulation model for the development of competencies by medical students.
abstract: Herein, we present a new collaborative clinical simulation (CCS) model for the development of medical competencies by medical students. The model is a comprehensive compendium of published considerations and recommendations on clinical simulation (CS) and computer-supported collaborative learning (CSCL). Currently, there are no educational models combining CS and CSCL. The CCS model was designed for the acquisition and assessment of clinical competencies; working collaboratively and supported by technology, small groups of medical students independently design and perform simulated cases. The model includes four phases in which the learning objectives, short case scenarios, materials, indices, and the clinical simulation are designed, monitored, rated and debriefed.
