Join us for this workshop exploring the bespoke virtual placements delivered for Nursing students at King’s College London. Enjoy a demonstration of these bespoke virtual placements and a discussion on the way AI is used to create simulated patient scenarios, including interactions with relatives and family members.

Join a discussion of the challenges faced in traditional placements and why AI has been introduced in these placements, before a focus on student interactions with and feedback on the platform.

You’ll also have an opportunity to try the platform out for yourself.

You do not need any prior knowledge of AI to enjoy this event. This event may be of particular interest to educators and other staff working in education and particularly those who support students to undertake placements in any setting.
