Abstract
Background
The virtual nurse lab related with breastfeeding practice, based on the Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge model (TPACK model), is an innovative active learning platform focused on enhancing clinical performance self-efficacy in breastfeeding scenarios.
Aim
This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of the virtual nurse lab in improving clinical performance self-efficacy and satisfaction among nursing students.
Methods
Utilizing a pre-experimental design, the study involved 106 fourth-year nursing students in Chiang Mai, Thailand. The educational resources included two virtual nurse labs, a tool bag, and three questionnaires. Descriptive statistics were employed. A repeated measures ANOVA was performed to compare the effect of virtual nurse lab on clinical performance self-efficacy.
Results
There was a statistically significant difference in clinical performance self-efficacy (p < .001), indicating progressive improvement in clinical performance self-efficacy. Overall satisfaction with the virtual lab was high (mean 4.58, S.D. 0.47).
Conclusions
The virtual nurse lab significantly enhances clinical performance self-efficacy and satisfaction, demonstrating its value as an educational tool in nursing education.
