Abstract
Background: Fundamentals of Nursing students at a large school of nursing in the Midwest reported difficulty using their course textbooks. There was also an increase in course failures and a decrease in performance on a Fundamentals of Nursing National Council Licensure Examination (NCLEX-RN®) preparatory proctored examination.
Method: A pilot project was implemented to evaluate the effectiveness of interactive, online learning modules compared to textbook readings on student performance, access and use of resources, and student experience.
Results: Following the pilot there was a significant improvement in course grades among traditional but not accelerated students using the modules compared to those using the textbook. Students reported that the modules were more engaging, cost-effective, and appealing to various learning styles. Weaknesses identified were the module lengths and technological concerns.
Conclusion: The online, interactive modules engaged students with course materials, reduced costs, and may have changed student performance. Additional research is needed among students in other courses and programs. [J Nurs Educ. 2024;63(X):XXX-XXX.].
