Publication:  Using Learning Curves to Identify and Explain Growth Patterns of Learners in Bronchoscopy Simulation: A Mixed-Methods Study Acad Med. 2020 Dec;95(12):1921-1928

Author: Mema et. al.

Purpose : Enter the thoughtful work of Mema, Mylopulos, Tekian, and Park: Using Learning Curves to Identify and Explain Growth Patterns of Learners in Bronchoscopy Simulation in Academic Medicine. These authors compared the growth trajectories of novice vs experts learning a specific skill. Specifically, they set out to:  …describe learning curves of novice trainees while practicing on a VR bronchoscopy simulator and to investigate and explain patterns of growth that can reassure or alert educators regarding trainee performance.
