What is it about?
The purpose of this study was to examine students’ ability to use effective clinical collaboration with an online audiometric simulator in a designed scaffolded environment. Three groups were formed to achieve this goal: two control groups (one using no collaboration and one using live, face-to-face collaboration) and one treatment group using virtual collaboration.

Why is it important?
This article gives an example of how audiometric simulations can be used to scaffold learning experiences for students and how collaboration among students impacts clinical reasoning skills in various conditions. The findings support the idea that allowing students to work together to problem solve cases with appropriate scaffolding in place can benefit learning and mastery of skills.
