“…Each item describes a specific DML debriefing behavior to assess whether the behavior is present or not present, which provides a framework for providing formative feedback to the debriefer. The DMLES has demonstrated evidence of validity and reliability 11. For this study, a score of 16 out of 20 (80%) indicated a competent level of debriefing with DML.…”

“…In the seminal National Council of State Boards of Nursing National Simulation Study,9 experts provided DML training, provided performance assessment, provided retraining, and provided feedback again, all were identified as key elements for success 10. Since that time, the DML Evaluation Scale (DMLES) was developed for formative assessment of 20 measurable DML behaviors to help debriefers learn and improve their debriefing skills 11…”

“…To understand the impact of a single dose of debriefing training on debriefer and learner outcomes, Bradley15 trained 30 debriefers from 4 prelicensure baccalaureate nursing programs to use DML. Following a 4-hour in-person DML training session and how to use the DMLES for assessment and feedback,11 participant debriefings were assessed subjectively and objectively. On average, participants only demonstrated 12.5% of the 20 DML behaviors.…”

“…10 Since that time, the DML Evaluation Scale (DMLES) was developed for formative assessment of 20 measurable DML behaviors to help debriefers learn and improve their debriefing skills. 11 Currently, most DML training includes a one-time episodic, formal, in-person, or synchronous online program given by DML experts that often reach capacity. The format includes brief practice of the debriefing elements but does not allow for assessment of a participant's ability to demonstrate a full debriefing or receive individualized feedback.…”

Background: Learning to effectively debrief with student learners can be a challenging task. Currently, there is little evidence to support the best way to train and evaluate a debriefer's competence with a particular debriefing method. Purpose: The purpose of this study was to develop and test an asynchronous online distributed modular training program with repeated doses of formative feedback to teach debriefers how to implement Debriefing for Meaningful Learning (DML). Methods: Following the completion of an asynchronous distributed modular training program, debriefers self-evaluated their debriefing and submitted a recorded debriefing for expert evaluation and feedback using the DML Evaluation Scale (DMLES). Results: Most debriefers were competent in DML debriefing after completing the modular training at time A, with DMLES scores increasing with each debriefing submission. Conclusion: The results of this study support the use of an asynchronous distributed modular training program for teaching debriefers how to implement DML.
