Abstract
This chapter describes and discusses the use of computer-based simulation in undergraduate nursing, to train basic manual clinical skills, using the example of urethral catheterisation at a clinical skills centre. It aims to give a rich account of the pedagogic arrangements and settings for such training, and to explore students’ views on necessary conditions and their practices of learning in this context.
