This study explored nursing information simulation learning system needs for clinical instructors and new nurses. Findings reveal differences in learning objectives, informing future system design and resources.
Area of Science:
- Nursing Education
- Health Informatics
- Simulation Learning
Background:
- Effective training is crucial for nursing staff development.
- Nursing information systems require tailored learning approaches.
- Simulation learning offers a practical training environment.
Purpose of the Study:
- To explore the content and needs of a nursing information simulation learning system.
- To compare learning objective perceptions between clinical instructors and new nurses.
- To provide a reference for designing effective nursing education systems.
Main Methods:
- A questionnaire survey was employed.
- 300 participants (clinical instructors and new nurses) were recruited via purposive sampling.
- Data were collected from a single medical center.
Main Results:
- A core framework with five key learning objectives was identified.
- Clinical instructors consistently rated the importance of these objectives higher than new nurses.
- Perceived needs for the simulation learning system varied by experience level.
Conclusions:
- The identified learning objectives provide a foundation for nursing simulation system design.
- Addressing differing needs between experienced and novice nurses is essential for system effectiveness.
- This study offers valuable insights for developing targeted nursing education resources.
