Inside the Simulation Studio

Oh, HELLO! Has anyone heard of the free "Inside the Simulation Studio" conference for SPs?  This sounds absolutely delightful!

Unfortunately, I can't find any recent info on it. Most of the information I can find is from 2013. But happily someone has posted videos from all the speakers! They include a wide range of diverse presentations including traditional power point, creative writing, music, roleplaying, films, recorded encounters, etc. The topics also span a wide range: the future of SPs, how to approach specific encounters, case development, active listening, feedback, mannequins, the scope of SP opportunities, etc.

I love the opportunity to watch other SPs talk and do what they love. But one of the things that really makes my heart sing is the specific emphasis on SPs and their creativity. Yes, I am analytical by nature, but the magic of SPs is the combination of heart, head and hand. So I am excited to see a group not only tolerate that combination, but embrace it.

All in all it's funny, informative and heartwarming. I hope they offer it again sometime. Check out the videos for yourself!
