Alternative learning activities for clinical during COVID-19 closings








Nursing faculty have reached out with questions regarding potential learning activities to substitute for clinical in the midst of the COVID-19 closings.

Here are some options:

A. The ARISE project, which was supported by a Department of Labor grant that has now ended. 150 simulations and serious games were created for nursing, respiratory therapy, and other disciplines.  Here are two ways to access these free scenarios, which require the use of an iPad and free app called "ARIS":

1. Skills Commons:

    1. Faculty Information/Instructions: https://www.skillscommons.org/handle/taaccct/12981
    2. All of the simulations are located at: https://www.skillscommons.org/handle/taaccct/4068/discover?query=arise
2. Everything was also added to a Google Drive that is organized by subfolders containing simulations, serious games and case studies: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1WaCew7a_MmhBxx49iDYST_meqiPapfvb?usp=sharing
    1. See the spreadsheet that summarizes the scenarios by discipline and level: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1P8qqSEloMSnV6C2so36Hbxzjj9rx78tI  
    2. Technical support: See the Technical Information document.  If you have any technical issues you can also read the FAQ document at: https://kb.cvtc.edu/52444

B.  H5P branching scenarios are currently being developed for the Open RN textbooks.  These are screen based and can be completed independently by students on a computer with internet access or a smartphone.  These scenarios are currently tailored for first or second semester students, but instructors could potentially add higher level critical thinking questions when assigning them within their learning management system.    Please use the following attribution when using these scenarios:  This scenario by Chippewa Valley Technical College is licensed under CC BY 4.0. Access the associated OER textbook for free at https://wtcs.pressbooks.pub/pharmacology/

Respiratory: https://h5p.org/node/687323  (based on the ARISE Pediatric Asthma scenario)

Learning Objectives:
  • Perform a focused respiratory assessment
  • Evaluate peak flow results using an Asthma Action Plan
  • Evaluate patient respiratory status using a protocol
  • Evaluate patient’s administration of an albuterol inhaler
  • Provide patient education regarding a newly prescribed medications


(based on the ARISE Wound Management scenario)

Learning Objectives:
  • Describe nursing considerations for administering Vancomycin
  • Identify the role obtaining a culture and sensitivity plays in the selection of an effective antibiotic
  • Identify patient variables to consider when administering Vancomycin
  • Identify factors that place the patient at risk for developing pseudomembraneous colitis or c-diff
  • Identify laboratory factors related to the administration of Vancomycin


An additional heart failure scenario is currently in development and will be posted on this blog when ready.

  1. Are these ARIS nursing serious games available to nursing faculty at other academic institutions to use? I tried and unable to get the game to play, even after reviewing all troubleshooting suggestions.

  2. Amazing post and I am waiting for the next post. Besides, through vein training courses, you will get an approach to most of the latest treatments and venous diseases. In this training, you will get the training of the latest vascular ultrasound technologies and for this, you don’t need higher education because simply, you will get medical education in one specific area.
