“…Current trends in laryngology, phonosurgery, speech‐language pathology, respiratory physical therapy, and related educational programs focus on bringing clinical features, such as laryngoscopic examinations and computerized voice and speech analyses, into undergraduate and graduate classrooms. A number of resources specific to this purpose have been designed and developed, ranging from dissection stations to more sophisticated settings containing computerized components, such as interactive programs, online classes, imaging and audio stations, virtual models, robot‐mannequins, and virtual reality simulators, the latter of which are mainly useful in specialties within high‐risk performance environments (Dailey et al,2004; Scalese et al,2008; Gordon et al,2010; Premkumar et al,2010; Tam,2010; Brown et al,2012; Lyon‐Maris and Scallan,2012; Tanzawa et al,2012). Advantages from such resources extend beyond the learning process itself and reach into outcomes‐based educational models, which were originally developed as a response to the recent shift in focus toward an evidenced assurance of learning, mastery, and competence of health professionals in clinical and/or surgical assessments (Scalese et al,2008; Okuda et al,2009).…”
