Distributed simulation (DS) is the concept of high-fidelity immersive on-demand, made widely available wherever and whenever it required. DS provides an easily transportable, self-contained 'set' for creating simulated environments within inflatable enclosure, at a small fraction cost dedicated, static facilities. High-fidelity currently confined to relatively number specialised centres. This largely because full-immersion perceived require static, dedicated sophisticated equipment,...

There is an increasing availability of digital technologies for teaching and learning human anatomy. Studies have shown that such applications allow better spatial awareness than traditional methods. These anatomy platforms offer users myriad features, as the ability to manipulate 3D models, conduct prosection, investigate anatomical regions through virtual reality, or perform knowledge tests on themselves. This study examined what faculty members' value when using students these learning.
