When live/in-person patient encounters are not an option due to schedule (or isolation due to pandemic), other options include:

• Assuming your

  SP’s

  SPs are able and willing to come in, they can conduct remote encounters with learners via web conferencing tools (ie Skype, GoToMeeting, etc).
  If you have a display capture unit in the room in use you can pull the monitor feed from the conferencing interface into LearningSpace as another camera in the room. 

  Tip
  title Tip - Audio Kit
  Assuming the audio is turned up loudly enough, the audio kit in the room would pick up both sides of the conversation.

  
  

• As mentioned above, if SP’s SPs are unable to come onsite, they could instead participate in encounters from home via the same conferencing tools, perhaps hosted by sim center staff who can start and stop recording on the conferencing tool.
  Once recorded and complete, the SP and Learner learner can log into LearningSpace to complete any Data data entry and the . The sim center staff can also upload the recording to LearningSpace.
  
  
• Some centers have opted to take an asynchronous approach to administer interactions.
  They do this by
  • Breaking a case/scenario into multiple segments and making each segment a separate Case within an Activity in LearningSpace 
  • Within each case, videos of a pre-staged version of the encounter can be embedded as well as any type of questions and write-up interface would be appropriate for the Learners learners to respond to at that juncture.
  • The activity can be set up with few restrictions on access so that Learners learners can access at their convenience.
