Abstract
This chapter aims to enhance the ability of healthcare educators to identify learner skill levels, develop and implement an appropriate simulation or scenario-based learning technique, and provide optimal feedback to refine clinical reasoning and decision-making development of the learner. The concept of problem-based learning is outlined and applied to the creation of virtual patient cases to augment clinical experiences for healthcare students amidst the COVID-19 pandemic. Through the use of appropriately targeted learning objectives, case design, and feedback strategies, students will be able to continue their professional and academic development in a post-pandemic landscape.
