Abstract:
Given the variety of uses of photovoice in nursing education, the importance of clarifying and describing this method is apparent. This scoping review aimed to explore the evidence on the use of photovoice in nursing education, describe the state of knowledge in this area, and identify knowledge gaps within the existing literature. A comprehensive search was performed in seven databases including MEDLINE, CINAHL, Embase, and Education Full Text. Three gray literature databases (ProQuest Dissertations and Theses Global database, EThOS, and PapersFirst) were also searched. This scoping review was conducted with reference to the JBI scoping review guidelines and reported using the PRISMA-ScR statement. A total of 22 studies published between 2001 and 2022 were included in this scoping review. The findings indicate that photovoice is used globally in nursing education to teach in various courses and content areas within online, hybrid, and in-person environments. Despite the heterogeneity within the definition of photovoice and associated pedagogical strategies, the results of this scoping review suggest that photovoice can serve as an educational tool for nursing students.
