The scores obtained were measured, and the reliability of the questionnaire (Cronbach Alfa), through a factorial analysis. Results: Average age=23.6 ± 4.5 years. Cronbach Alpha = 0.91. The factorial analysis identified two dimensions explaining 32.4% and 32.1% of the variance (64.5% total variance). 70.6% of the students are quite or totally in agreement with the fact that the video-simulation allows them to improve substantially the learning. Conclusions: Students showed a high level of satisfaction with the learning methodology implemented.
