Abstract

This manuscript introduces an innovative approach to developing educational chatbots informed by clinical simulations to enhance learning experiences. With the rapid interaction of generative AI in education, this work provides a structured process to creating chatbots that simulate interactions for educational purposes. The four development phases, Conceptualization, Protocol Design, Technical Design, and Trials and Revisions are grounded in the foundational practices of clinical simulations. This approach bridges gaps between theory and practical application of emerging technologies while emphasizing the role of humans at the center of AI-enhanced learning. In addition to technical guidance, pedagogical strategies for introducing chatbots to students are provided. This comprehensive framework can provide educators with tools to create and implement dynamic learning tools to create more personalized and immersive experiences.
