Nursing students as partners in pedagogic consultancy to support the co-creation of teaching and learning

The integration of primary health care content within nursing curricula is limited. This study looked at addressing this gap through a collaborative partnership between students and academics that sought to develop and embed learning resources into postregistration and preregistration nursing programmes, with a focus on integrating the All Our Health digital resource.

The study aimed to draw on the student voice to understand how to best align the All Our Health resources in teaching and learning to benefit students equally.

A sandpit event was held to gather student observations and opinions. Participants described the strengths and limitations of the digital platform, and made recommendations for embedding it into learning programmes.

There are barriers and facilitators to student learning using digital platforms. Benefits include: ease of use and speed; accessibility and user-friendly navigation; relevance; and alignment with traditional teaching and learning strategies; and real-world application.

All Our Health should be integrated into curricula at an early stage; resources should be aligned clearly with modules; materials should be tailored to levels of learning; and digital platforms should be used alongside learning in clinical practice.
