Abstract

Online teaching and learning have received widespread acceptance in recent years due to the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic. The current study set out to determine nursing students’ perception and attitude to the online learning model (OLM) in the schools of nursing within South-West Nigeria. The study employed a descriptive cross-sectional design to collect data among nursing students. A self-developed questionnaire was used in this study to collect data via online google.form.com. Data analysis involves application of Relative Importance Index (RII). Findings revealed a high level of perception about online classes. Main attitudinal traits demonstrated by students were getting easily distracted, engaging in multiple tasks and having family distractions. Family members also distracted the teachers. Poor electricity supply, unstable internet network, and financial constraint were the major barriers encountered. In conclusion, we found that nursing students in South-West Nigeria demonstrated a positive disposition to online learning and have a good attitude towards it.

在尼日利亚西南部Covid-19封锁期间，护理学生对在线学习的看法和态度

近年来，由于新冠肺炎疫情的爆发，在线教学得到了广泛认可。目前的研究旨在确定尼日利亚西南部护理学校护理学生对在线学习模式(OLM)的看法和态度。本研究采用描述性横断面设计收集护生资料。本研究使用自行开发的问卷，透过google.form.com网站收集资料。数据分析涉及到相对重要性指数(Relative Importance Index, RII)的应用。调查结果显示，人们对在线课程的认知度很高。学生表现出的主要态度特征是容易分心、从事多项任务和受家庭干扰。家庭成员也分散了老师的注意力。电力供应差、互联网不稳定、资金紧张是主要障碍。综上所述，我们发现尼日利亚西南部的护理专业学生对在线学习表现出积极的倾向和良好的态度。
