ClinConnect Summary

The GEMAS project is an exciting clinical trial that aims to improve the way medical and nursing students learn through a virtual game that simulates real-life hospital situations. By participating in this serious game, students will work through various clinical cases that mimic emergency scenarios, helping them to enhance their knowledge and skills in a fun and interactive way. The game is designed to be used on computers and mobile devices, allowing for flexible learning. It will also evaluate how well students learn compared to traditional teaching methods and how this new approach can positively change their behavior and performance in their future careers.

To participate in the GEMAS trial, you need to be a medical student in your 5th or 6th year, or a nursing student in your 3rd or 4th year. Residents in medicine and nursing from various specialties are also welcome. It's important that participants are committed to being actively involved in the study. However, those who have prior experience with similar clinical cases or have serious health issues that could affect their participation will not be eligible. This innovative project promises to engage students in a dynamic way while enhancing their learning experience and preparing them for real-world challenges in healthcare.
