Introduction:
This project explored the feasibility of implementing an innovative cross-curricular framework using an adaptive learning (AL) platform and telehealth simulations.
Objective:
To determine the feasibility of implementing an innovative cross-curricular framework using an AL platform and telehealth simulations.
Methods:
A mixed-method pilot study was conducted using novel AL modules, adaptive case studies, and telehealth simulation.
Results:
Quantitative data analysis demonstrated significant correlations within and across demographics using the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) and Simulation Effectiveness Tool-Modified (SET-M). Specifically, significant correlations are evident between TAM ease of use items 1-6, 8, and 10 and TAM usefulness 1, 3, and 9, with SET-M items 3 and 5-15. Thematic analysis revealed that participants felt that the overall project was worthwhile and increased confidence in telehealth.
Conclusion:
Participants found the technology used in this study was easy and useful, and they indicated a positive experience with telehealth simulation. Overall, this study demonstrated that implementation of AL using our paradigm is feasible and supports further investigation into implementing a cross-curricular framework using an AL platform and telehealth simulations.

Nursing Clinical Information System
A Nursing Clinical Information System (NCIS) is a specialized type of healthcare information system tailored to meet the unique needs of nursing practice. It incorporates the principles of nursing informatics to streamline information management and improve the quality of care delivery.
Critical attributes of NCIS include:
