Overview
Brief Summary
The goal is to evaluate the acceptance of Augmented Reality (AR) simulation as a learning modality for prehospital providers. The simulation itself is grounded in traditional best practices for simulation delivery and design as well as prior literature on simulation training for prehospital providers; the focus of this study is the participants' experiential interaction with AR and the simulation resources.

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Thematic Analysis of Post-Simulation Discussions
Time Frame: Duration of post-simulation debrief (15-20 minutes)
The primary aim is to study the acceptance of AR simulation amongst prehospital providers via thematic analysis of semi-structured discussions using qualitative research methods.
Secondary Outcomes
- System Usability Scale (SUS)(Duration of Intervention (less than one hour))
- Headset Ergonomics(Duration of Intervention (less than one hour))
