The Journal of Nursing Education
|June 5, 2020
Summary
Adaptive learning (AL) platforms enhance student learning and engagement. This study found that graduate nursing students preferred AL platforms over traditional learning management systems (LMS), reporting improved learning and engagement.
Area of Science:
- Nursing Education
- Educational Technology
Background:
- Adaptive learning (AL) platforms personalize content based on student knowledge and learning pace.
- Traditional learning management systems (LMS) offer a standardized approach to course delivery.
Purpose of the Study:
- To compare the effectiveness of an adaptive learning platform against a traditional LMS in a graduate pathophysiology course.
- To evaluate student perceptions of learning and engagement in an AL environment.
Main Methods:
- A randomized control group experimental study was conducted.
- The study involved a pilot adaptive graduate nurse educator pathophysiology course.
Main Results:
- 86% of participants (n=21) agreed they learned better with an AL platform.
- 100% of participants (N=23) reported increased course engagement.
- 86% of participants (n=21) expressed a desire to use the AL platform again.
Conclusions:
- The pilot demonstrated the potential effectiveness of AL platforms in supporting student learning.
- Students perceived enhanced engagement and more effective learning experiences with AL.
- A significant interest exists among students for future courses utilizing AL platforms.

The nursing process provides a clinical decision-making framework for patients and families to establish and implement a personalized care plan. Since part of the nurse's duties is to teach patients, the steps of the nursing process are the most effective way to approach instruction. The nursing process and the teaching-learning process are inextricably linked.

Implementation is the execution of the nursing care plan developed during the planning phase.
The five steps to implementing effective nursing care include reassessing the patient, reviewing and revising the existing nursing care plan, organizing the resources and care delivery, anticipating and preventing complications, and implementing nursing interventions.

Planning for learning involves the development of a teaching plan. Teaching plans are similar to nursing care plans—both follow the steps of the nursing process. Planning in the teaching process involves setting goals and outcomes. Here, goals identify what a patient needs to achieve to understand a healthcare topic better, whereas the outcomes are the action to be performed by the patient to achieve the goal within a timeframe. For example, if the goal is to educate the patient about...

There are several characteristics related to delivering nursing care. One vital characteristic of the nursing process is that it can be used to protect nurses and justify the provided care. Productive use of the nursing process requires the knowledge and skills of nurses to assess and solve issues. Nurses should develop and strengthen their critical thinking skills and evidence-based nursing interventions to improve their skills in formulating nursing care plans. A well-defined approach to...
