Abstract

Background: Educational environment is an essential foundation for the effective learning process of students, which in turn contributes to the success of a curriculum. The evaluation of educational environment from students’ perception has been considered as an indicator for the quality improvement of higher education. This study aimed to explore the Vietnamese nursing students’ perception of educational environment and identify internal consistency reliability of the Vietnamese version of the (Dundee Ready Educational Environment Measure) DREEM instrument. Subjects and methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted among 102 second-year undergraduate nursing students in a medical university. An online survey, including the 50-item DREEM questionnaire, was used to obtain student’s perception of learning environment. Results: The overall Cronbach’s alpha coefficient of the V-DREEM in this study was 0.95 and five sub-scales ranged from 0.74 to 0.85, demonstrating that the V-DREEM instrument has good internal consistency reliability for measurement. The overall score of DREEM was 143.89/200 (SD =17.50), indicating a positive educational environment perceived. Fifty-eight percent (58%) of the items were rated high score, however, there were aspects perceived as problematic including teaching methods (The teaching is too teacher-centered), student-teacher interactions (The students irritate and annoy the teachers), and students’ learning approaches (I feel able to ask the questions I want). Conclusion: The study results suggested the specific areas, including teaching methods, student-teacher interactions, and students’ learning approaches, that need more attention to enhance the educational environment for nursing students in Vietnam where the reform of nursing education has eventuated recently.
研究护理专业学生对教育环境的看法:进一步验证 DREEM 工具
背景:教育环境是学生有效学习过程的重要基础,反过来也有助于课程的成功。从学生的感知来评价教育环境已被视为提高高等教育质量的一项指标。本研究旨在探讨越南护理专业学生对教育环境的感知,并确定越南语版(邓迪准备就绪教育环境测量)DREEM 工具的内部一致性可靠性。研究对象和方法:在一所医科大学的 102 名二年级护理本科生中开展了一项横断面研究。通过在线调查,包括 50 个项目的 DREEM 问卷,了解学生对学习环境的看法。结果显示本研究中,V-DREEM 的总 Cronbach's Alpha 系数为 0.95,五个分量表的 Cronbach's Alpha 系数在 0.74 至 0.85 之间,表明 V-DREEM 具有良好的内部一致性。DREEM 的总分为 143.89/200(SD =17.50),表明所感知的教育环境是积极的。58%的项目被评为高分,但也有一些方面被认为是有问题的,包括教学方法(教学过于以教师为中心)、师生互动(学生惹恼了教师)和学生的学习方法(我觉得我可以提出我想提出的问题)。结论研究结果表明,在越南,护理教育改革刚刚开始,需要更加关注教学方法、师生互动和学生学习方法等具体领域,以改善护理专业学生的教育环境。
