The study aimed to explore, describe, and interpret the effectiveness of clinical simulation as pedagogical tool in bridging the deficiency of higher order thinking skills among Medical Assistant students and make recommendations on incorporating clinical simulation as a pedagogical tool in enhancing thinking skills and aligning the curriculum. Qualitative approach using interpretative-descriptive case study design was utilized in framing the research study. Purposive sampling using twenty (20) final year Medical Assistant students and five (5) teaching staff participated in this study.
