Background:
Despite suboptimal level of the utilization of student-centered pedagogy, multidimensional, modifiable factors associated with the utilization have been rarely examined among nurse educators.
Purpose:
The aim of this study was to examine the utilization status of student-centered pedagogy and factors associated with the utilization by nurse educators.
Methods:
Data on student-centered pedagogy utilization, knowledge, beliefs in effectiveness, stress, coping, support, degree earned, teaching experiences, and other demographic characteristics were analyzed using multiple regression analyses.
Results:
The status of the student-centered pedagogy utilization was moderate, and knowledge was consistently associated with the utilization in the total sample (N = 108) and in both subgroups (≤50 vs. >50 years old). Beliefs in effectiveness were associated with the utilization only in the age > 50 years old group.
Conclusions:
Nurse educators need to develop and deliver interventions to facilitate the utilization of student-centered pedagogy through increase in knowledge and beliefs in effectiveness of student-centered pedagogy.
