ABSTRACT
@#Introduction: The COVID-19 pandemic has limited social activities in public spaces because transmission originates from physical contact. The impact of activity limitations affects the nursing profession’s practice learning system. The blended learning model is used to achieve the learning process. This study aimed to identify the effect of blended learning on knowledge of competency tests for nursing students at the mental health nursing station. Methods: The study used a quantitative study approach with a quasi-experiment design. The number of respondents based on the calculation of the total sampling amounted to 77 people. It used research data collection with the pre and post-test procedures, which arranged the questions based on the style of competency tests. The data analysis used a parametric Paired T-test. Results: The results showed an effect of blended learning on knowledge of competency test questions for nursing students at the mental health nursing station with a p-value < 0.05. There is an increase in the average knowledge of nursing students before and after the blended learning process. Conclusion: This study provides recommendations for approaches related to methods and evaluation in blended learning in each subject taught at the professional stage.
