ABSTRACT
Background: Two National League for Nursing (NLN) Advancing Care Excellence for Seniors (ACE.S) cases were transformed into engaging and interactive virtual simulation learning experiences due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Methods: The purpose of this article is to describe the process of designing and implementing this novel approach to virtual simulation. Results: Faculty aligned each virtual simulation with existing course outcomes, student learning outcomes, concept-based learning principles, and best practices of The International Nursing Association for Clinical Simulation and Learning (INACSL) standards. Conclusions: Practical strategies used to convert these unfolding case studies into virtual simulations for a small private Christian university of undergraduate junior level accelerated nursing students will be revealed.
