  • Online Learning Pedagogy

Background:

  • The COVID-19 pandemic necessitated a rapid shift to online learning in nursing education.
  • This transition limited traditional opportunities for students to develop crucial communication skills.
  • There is a significant need for accessible online educational resources and faculty development in teaching communication.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the effectiveness of two COMFORT COVID-19 Communication Modules (PPE and Video/Phone) for undergraduate nursing students.
  • To assess changes in student communication competency after intervention with the online modules.

Main Methods:

  • A pre-post study design was employed, collecting both qualitative and quantitative data.
  • Undergraduate Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) students (n=197) from four US university campuses participated.
  • Students completed online modules, with pre- and post-assessments measuring communication competency.

Main Results:

  • Statistically significant improvements were observed in students' communication attitude, knowledge, and skills after using the modules.
  • Both the PPE and Video/Phone modules demonstrated positive impacts on student communication competency.

Conclusions:

  • The study underscores the importance of integrating measurable communication learning objectives into nursing curricula.
  • Evidence-based communication theory and practice are essential components for developing skilled nurses.
  • The findings support the use of online modules to enhance communication competency in nursing education.
