A new evaluation system for clinical nursing practice teaching quality was developed using a scientific approach. This system prioritizes process quality, teaching staff, and implementation of regulations to enhance education.
Area of Science:
- Nursing Education
- Quality Improvement
- Healthcare Pedagogy
Background:
- Current clinical nursing education evaluations lack objectivity and feasibility.
- Existing assessments fail to provide targeted feedback for faculty development or identify areas for improvement.
- A scientific, systematic, and clinically applicable evaluation index system is needed.
Purpose of the Study:
- To construct a scientific and systematic evaluation index system for clinical nursing practice teaching quality.
- To determine the weight of each indicator within the system.
- To provide a reference for objective evaluation of clinical nursing teaching quality.
Main Methods:
- Utilized the Structure-Process-Outcome theoretical model.
- Conducted a literature review and Delphi surveys with expert participation.
- Employed the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) to determine indicator weights.
Main Results:
- A 100% expert response rate was achieved with high authority coefficients.
- The final system comprises 3 first-level, 10 second-level, and 29 third-level indicators.
- Process quality (39.81%), Structure quality (36.67%), and Outcome quality (23.52%) were the primary indicators by weight. Teaching staff, teaching rules, and teaching plans received significant attention.
Conclusions:
- The developed evaluation index system is scientific, reliable, and features reasonable weighting.
- Management focus has shifted towards process-oriented evaluation.
- Emphasis on teaching team construction, regulatory implementation, and teaching design is crucial for enhancing clinical teaching quality.
