The purpose of this project is to compare in situ simulation with standard lab simulation. To do this, 30 pre-clinical medical students will be randomized into the lab or ER and taught how to suture a simple laceration. To do this, a synthesized 'skin' will be placed over a volunteer's arm and will have an incision of a predetermined length.

Primary | How each simulated learning environment effects a student's ability to learn how to suture | Each student will complete a post survey questionnaire after their attempt to suture in the ER department. This will help determine the impact and therefore, which environment was more conducive to learning how to suture. | 1 week |
