Nurse educators play a critical role in preparing prelicensure students for the updated NCLEX-RN, which focuses on clinical reasoning and judgment. Despite evidence in the nursing and education literature supporting active teaching-learning strategies, faculty continue to use lecture-based approaches. Little is known about the factors influencing…

Health professions educators are increasingly encouraged to implement "desirable difficulties" in their instruction, such as interleaved practice. In practical context, however, there is limited empirical evidence regarding the (meta)cognitive benefits of desirable difficulties, and interleaved practice in particular, posing a challenge…

This study aimed to explore the perceptions of nursing students regarding the flipped classroom and Kahoot! application used in intramuscular (IM) injection teaching. This study was conducted using a descriptive qualitative approach with 16 nursing students. Semi-structured open-ended questions was used in-depth face-to-face individual interviews.…

Screen-based simulation (SBS) can complement traditional nursing courses. We compared the effect of innovative virtual environments not widespread in French nursing schools on self-efficacy, quiz performance, and self-regulated learning behaviors. This quasi-experimental study involved 1183 student nurses. Participants were divided into an…

Traditional teaching methods often limit interactive learning, negatively impacting students' motivation and learning achievement. Moreover, fostering collaborative awareness and problem-solving skills is crucial for developing the core competencies of future nursing professionals. To address these challenges, this study proposed an escape…

This research focuses on Generation Z (Gen Z) students, specifically those in nursing colleges. Gen Z individuals display unique characteristics in terms of thinking, personality, lifestyle, and learning preferences compared to preceding generations, necessitating adaptations in teaching methodologies within nursing schools. This study explores…

Dramatization, a teaching method where each student acts out or mimics a cell or body parts while the entire group represents the physiological process was adapted to produce original teaching videos paired with a pretest that activates memory and a posttest to prevent misconceptions. Three physiology instructors collaborated on Zoom to create six…

Flipped teaching (FT) is an instructional approach centered around students, displacing traditional lectures from the classroom to make room for active learning. Retrieval practice can enhance content recall. This study investigated the effectiveness of lecture-style teaching (TT), FT, and a combination of retrieval practice with FT (FTR) in a…

The discourse surrounding active learning in higher education (HE) highlights its potential to improve learning outcomes, foster student engagement, and promote active student positionality. However, several studies have underscored instances of student resistance and institutional impediments to active learning. Given the substantial variability…

Anatomy, physiology, and pathophysiology are essential foundational concepts of nursing education. Despite consensus on the importance of the bioscience curriculum, teaching and learning challenges persist without widely recognized strategies to address the obstacles. 3D virtual cadavers are a promising technological resource to improve bioscience…

Anatomy and physiology courses are foundational in nursing education but are often perceived as challenging due to heavy content load. Innovative teaching methods, including social media platforms like Instagram Reels, may enhance student engagement and learning. In this quasi-experimental pre-post-test design with a control group, we examined the…

The flipped classroom is an innovative pedagogical strategy that can play a crucial role in the training of healthcare professionals, as soft skills are necessary competencies for the quality of patient care. This quasi-experimental study features a pre-test/post-test design, with a control group and an intervention group aiming to investigate the…

In the clinical medical field, case studies, medication records, examination results, and physician prescriptions are documented in English. As a consequence, the English for Medical Professionals (EMP) program has become one of the important courses in nursing education in non-English-speaking countries. For English as a Foreign Language (EFL)…

Background/purpose: The emergence of educational technologies has profoundly transformed teaching and learning methods in health sciences. This bibliometric study aims to identify the most widely used educational practices in this field between 2014 and 2024, exploring their applications within a constantly evolving technological context.…

This study investigated the integration of 21st-century skills, specifically the 4C skills (critical thinking, communication, collaboration, and creativity), in English textbooks used in first-year nursing programs across seven universities in West Sumatra, Indonesia. The study employed a content analysis approach, combining quantitative and…
