The problem with paper rating forms
Paper forms get lost. Facilitators forget to return them. You spend hours entering data. Ratings are inconsistent. There has to be a better way.
Works offline—sync when back on wifi
Facilitators can rate students in the lab, even without internet. All ratings sync automatically when they reconnect. No lost data, no connectivity worries.
Simulation-specific anchors keep ratings consistent
Every rating domain shows scenario-specific anchors right on screen. Facilitators know exactly what "proficient" looks like for this simulation. No more rating drift.
Auto-scoring skill checklists
Weighted checklist items automatically calculate an overall score. Facilitators just check off what they see—SimKlar does the math. Fast, consistent, defendable.
All scenario details at their fingertips
Facilitators see the full scenario, attached medical directives, pictures, and competencies—all in one place. No flipping through printouts or hunting for references.
Rate both lead and partner simultaneously
Check off skills and competencies for both the lead candidate and their partner in one rating session. Efficient and captures learning for everyone involved.
Instant feedback for students
As soon as the iPad syncs, students can view their ratings, comments, and competencies. They learn immediately while the experience is still fresh—not weeks later.
How offline iPad rating works
Load scenarios onto iPads
Facilitators sync iPads before the lab session. All scenarios, anchors, and checklists download automatically. They're ready to rate—even if wifi goes down.
Facilitators rate offline with anchors and checklists
Open the scenario, see the full details, enter scores with simulation-specific anchors, check off skills/competencies, add comments. Everything is guided and consistent.
Sync and students see results immediately
When facilitators reconnect to wifi, all ratings upload automatically. Students log in and see their feedback right away. No manual data entry. No lost forms.
