This research investigated how dramatization simulation affected nursing students' ethical attitudes. Most nurses and nursing students encounter ethical issues in their healthcare practices. Students who receive an education in ethics are better equipped to solve ethical problems, develop ethical sensitivity, and adopt an ethical attitude.…

The purpose of this study was to increase first-semester Historically Black College and University (HBCU) nursing students' simulation exposure by 50% using the ATI education platform and measure student perceptions of readiness for clinical rotations. This study addressed the research gap of simulation in beginning nursing courses and the impact…

Nursing students are important future health care providers to the growing number of older persons in society. However, two barriers are their common ageist attitudes and lack of interest in geriatrics. This is a concern in light of the global demand for nurses and a challenge that need to be addressed in nurse education. Age suit simulation has…

Aims: To determine the perception of nursing students on their satisfaction and self-confidence with simulation learning experience. Methods: A descriptive cross-sectional research design utilized in this study. A convenient sample comprised all third-year nursing students (n=60) who were available at the time of data collection. The Simulation…

Peer feedback is useful for enhancing students' learning outcomes, but nursing students' experiences of receiving peer video and verbal feedback are not commonly explored. We investigated nursing students' views on receiving peer video and verbal feedback after simulated practice during skills laboratory lessons. This descriptive qualitative study…

In higher education, researchers have shown that student engagement is related to personal development and learning. The overall purpose of this non-experimental, cross-sectional, correlational study was to examine differences in student engagement across active learning experiences in prelicensure nursing clinical education. The specific active…

The issues of bias and racism require that nursing students and healthcare leaders are competent and confident to recognize and effectively address situations that arise in the work setting and community. The American Organization for Nursing Leadership (AONL) stated it is the responsibility of all nurse leaders to address issues related to…

All nurses may be obliged to care for patients at the end of life. Baccalaureate nursing education should prepare nurses to provide this care, but best practice for end of life care education has not been established. Nurses are not adequately prepared to care for dying patients and grieving families. This research study explored the effectiveness…

Clinical judgment is defined as an understanding and interpretation regarding patient's needs, health problems or concerns (Tanner, 2006). There are four interrelated processes in Tanner's model that consist of noticing, interpreting, responding, and reflecting (Tanner, 2006). Because clinical judgment is extremely complex and encompasses many…

This study evaluated the effect of high-fidelity simulation with both mannequins and live actors on flexible and reflective thinking of nursing students. Students enrolled in an undergraduate nursing program were recruited to participate in this study. Ninety students, all female, completed both pre- and post-surveys. The researchers conducted a…

Today's nursing students need to be knowledgeable, engage in superior nursing skills, and learn the art of patient communication to give patients the best care. This qualitative case study addresses nursing students, their exercises that influence communication skills in the simulation laboratory, nursing and communication educators and the…

Simulation and debriefing have grown in popularity as nursing programs are faced with limited clinical opportunities. The COVID-19 pandemic further emphasized the need for innovative teaching methods as nursing programs were faced with the challenge of providing clinical experiences outside of the hospital setting. The purpose of this study was to…

Background: Nurse educators have an obligation to ensure that students learn, develop, and apply higher-order cognitive skills. New graduates are expected to practice at a higher performance level in order to care for more complex patients, yet barriers to clinical education, such as securing clinical sites, have made it difficult for nurse…

With an increasing emphasis on the importance of real-world learning in higher education, coupled with demand for placement experience, simulation has become an increasingly popular pedagogy. However, literature is scant on how students feed-forward their learning from the simulation debrief into placement. A mixed-method study of 108 student…

Context: Simulation is a frequently used technique for interprofessional education, allowing students from multiple professions to work together in providing quality patient care. However, little is known about the impact of interprofessional simulation with the inclusion of athletic training students because of the lack of literature. Objective:…
