Area of Science:

  • Nursing Education
  • Bioscience Curriculum

Background:

  • Transitioning pre-registration nursing programs to higher education has created challenges in teaching bioscience.
  • A significant number of issues have emerged regarding the bioscience component within nursing curricula.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To survey students and staff regarding effective teaching strategies for bioscience in nursing.
  • To identify methods to improve student learning and comprehension in this challenging subject area.

Main Methods:

  • A survey was conducted among 294 nursing students and 57 staff members.
  • The survey aimed to gather perspectives on the value of lectures, tutorials, and laboratory sessions.

Main Results:

  • Most students perceived lectures, tutorials, and laboratory sessions as equally beneficial for their learning and practice.

  • Student and staff views on the value of different teaching strategies differed significantly.
  • Conclusions:

    • Curriculum adjustments, particularly in apportionment, may alleviate student difficulties with bioscience.
    • Continuation of lectures and laboratory work is supported, but a specialized tutorial system is recommended to address specific nursing student challenges.
    • Staff showed little support for reallocating resources towards such a tutorial system.
