Abstract
Guides are frequently used in medical education and other health sciences by teachers who focus on constructivism. In health, their utility has been to obtain standardized protocols that can be accepted globally, using best evidence as a gold standard.
The utility that we have found and developed with the guides for clinical simulation is different than the utility of clinical guides. Simulation guides are products of an intellectual exercise of educators focused on an educational project and are the reflection of a school of formation.
Unlike clinical guides aimed at the standardization and globalization of concepts, simulation guides are not intended to be global but they must correspond to the educational project as a reflection of institutional objectives and it should encourage the development of a school of formation.
Likewise, simulation guides encourage the development of current educational concepts such as: formative evaluation, auto and co-evaluation, psychological safety, curriculum by competences and patient safety.
