Abstract
Background: Learning depends not only upon how teachers have designed and structured their subjects and courses but also upon how their students perceive and understand this design and structure. Understanding student's level of perception with their clinical education forms a basis of determining the quality of nursing education.
Objective: Assess nursing students' perception of their learning experience with community health nursing practical modules.
Methods: Cross-sectional descriptive study, the convenience sample included 149 students studying a community health nursing practical course at the Faculty of Nursing affiliated to Modern University for Technology and Information. Three tools were used; (a) interviewing questionnaire regarding demographic characteristics. (b) Undergraduate modules experience questionnaire and (c) Student evaluation of clinical education environment inventory.
Results: Students' total perception mean scores regarding the practical modules experience questionnaire was (79.82%), and different community clinical learning environment, family health centers (82.01%), schools (76. 83%), and geriatric homes (79. 29%) with statistical significance differences p ≤ .042. Furthermore, significant relationship was found between students' academic achievement and total perception of the Undergraduate Modules Experience Questionnaire (UMEQ) and its subscales, Good Teaching, Intellectual Motivation (p ≤ .01), Clear goals and standards and Generic Skills (p ≤ .04), Appropriate Assessment and Overall Satisfaction (p ≤ .05).
Conclusion: Nursing students revealed a higher positive perception of community health nursing practical modules experiences. However, there was few areas are required for improving quality of the practical modules.
Implications for nursing education: Increasing period of students' clinical training exposure, teaching the skills of effective time management as well as increasing number of the academic staff in the community health nursing department are recommended strategies for improving quality of community health nursing practical modules.
