ABSTRACT
Objective To discuss the pattern and effect of reading report activities on college-to-undergraduate nursing students in adult higher education. Methods We chose 154 college-to-undergraduate nursing students in adult higher education who studied at our department from 2009 to 2012 as control group, meanwhile the experimental group consisted of 168 college-to-undergrad-uate nursing students in adult higher education who studied at our department from 2013 to 2014.We used thefive-in-oneteaching method involving relevant scientific knowledge training, tutorial system, group report meeting, exchange of excellent reading report and score checking to train the experimental group, while the control group was still trained by primary method which was relevant scientific knowledge teaching and discussion of excellent reading report. Results The reading reports wrote by the students in the experimental group were superior to those wrote by the control group (P<0.001);The experimental group had better scores in the achievements of scientific knowledge and theory (P<0.001); The self-assessment of experimental group students in the ability of literature review, reading and analysis was higher than that of the control group (P<0.001).As to the effects of reading report such as enhancing scien-tific awareness, expanding scope of knowledge and so on, the experimental group had a obvious advantage over the control group ( P<0.001). Conclusion The five-in-onetraining pattern in the reading report activities involving relevant scientific knowledge training, tutorial system, group report meeting, exchange of excellent reading report and score checking can effectively improve the scientif-ic awareness of college-to-undergraduate nursing students in adult higher education, which is conductive to establish the basis of nurs-ing scientific research, guide the clinical nursing work and improve the comprehensive quality of students.
ABSTRACT
Objective How to improve nursing students′consciousness and ability of scientific research remains a big chal-lenge to in advanced nursing education .This study aimed to investigate the mode and methods of training the scientific research ability of adult nursing students in the junior-to-regular college education program . Methods Using a new mode of scientific research train-ing, i.e.class training+tutors′guidance+individual appraisal , we trained 242 adult nursing students from grades 2009 to 2013 of the junior-to-regular college education program , along with related questionnaire investigation . Results All the students considered the mode to be effective in improving their consciousness and ability of scientific research .During their study at school , they published 115 research papers in the Source Journals for Chinese Scientific and Technical Papers and Citations , and 18 of them undertook nursing re-search projects and won various awards for science and technology achievements in nursing research . Conclusion This new mode can effectively promote the scientific research ability of adult nursing students in the junior -to-regular college education program .
