摘要

背景在第二学期的护理课程中,实施了以同伴为主导的研讨会和模拟课程,作为一项强化课程,该课程的自然减员率一直居高不下。方法以同伴为主导的活动与课程大纲保持一致,并在整个学期中实施。数据收集包括课程考试、成绩和护理专业学生(37 人)的调查。数据分析采用独立和配对 t 检验。通过 t 检验,参加工作坊和考试成绩之间没有统计学意义。调查反馈显示,学生的批判性思维、对内容的理解和自信心都有所提高。护理教育可以利用同伴引导学习作为一种补充策略,以提高护理课程作业中的学业成绩、批判性思维和自信心。

Implementing Peer Learning to Enhance Academic Performance in First-Year Nursing Students

Background

Peer-led workshops and simulations were implemented as an enrichment program in a second-semester nursing course with historically high attrition rates.

Aim

The goal was to improve academic performance, critical thinking, and confidence and reduce course attrition rates.

Methods

Peer-led activities were aligned with the course syllabus and administered throughout the semester. Data collection included course exams, grades, and a survey from the nursing students (N=37). Independent and paired t-tests were used for data analysis.

Results

Students participating in 6 or more peer-led workshops exhibited higher exam and course grades. The t-test did not provide statistical significance with workshop participation and exam grades. Survey responses reported increased critical thinking, improved content understanding, and confidence.

Conclusion

Peer-led learning may offer value in course success and progression. Nursing education could utilize peer-led learning as a supplemental strategy to enhance academic performance, critical thinking, and confidence in nursing coursework.
