ABSTRACT
Objective:To explore the effect of workshop situational teaching in practice training of midwifery specialty.Methods:89 students in midwifery specialty were divided into observational group and control group. The control group was given traditional teaching, and the observational group was implemented with situational teaching based on workshop. The effect of teaching was investigated by skill assessment, Chinese version of self-rating scale of self-directed learning and practice teaching quality evaluation questionnaire. SPSS 23.0 was used for t test.Results:The scores of 6 practical skills and the total scores of students in the observational group were higher than those in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.01, P<0.05). Study initiative, learning behavior, learning strategies, learning evaluation, interpersonal skills and self-directed learning ability of students in the observational group were all higher than those in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.01, P<0.05).The evaluation of teaching quality of the observational group was "excellent" and was "good" in the control group. There was no statistically significant difference in the scores toward teaching attitude of the observational group compared with the control group ( P>0.05). The total scores of teaching content, teaching methods, teaching effects and practice teaching quality of the observational group were higher than those of the control group, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.01). Conclusions:The workshop situational teaching was helpful in promoting the transformation of students' theoratical knowledge to practice, stimulate students' independent learning ability and improve the quality of practice teaching.
ABSTRACT
Objective To design standardized cases to evaluate the ability of the assessment among nursing students.Methods A set of standardized cases were designed based on an international standardized nursing language as well as a textbook of health assessment and reference.After validity of the set of standardized cases had been tested by the focus group and expert evaluation,the cases were applied to test the ability of the assessment among a total of 57 nursing students.Data were analyzed statistically.Results The average score of evaluation ability of nursing students was 42.5 (15～57).Nursing students got the highest score in psychosocial dimension,accounting for 50.7％ (13.93/27.5).Among five cases,the most difficult case was case 4,the degree of difficulty was 0.36.Conclusions This set of standardized cases can be used to assess the assessment ability among nursing students,and also can be used to evaluate the effects of training.
