2.4K
Ethical dilemmas in nursing are of utmost importance, as they often arise from the tension between adhering to core ethical principles and the practical realities of healthcare delivery. These dilemmas require nurses to navigate complex situations where competing ethical considerations pull them in different directions.
Let us explore some examples to understand the potentially complex moral decisions nurses face.
Take the case of caring for minors, particularly in areas related to reproductive...

Area of Science:

  • Medical Education
  • Ethics Education
  • Health Professions Education

Background:

  • Medical ethics instruction is a requirement in health professions education.
  • Current asynchronous teaching methods for ethics lack strategies for deep reflection and interaction.
  • There is a need for effective asynchronous teaching delivery methods in medical ethics.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe the deployment of a novel asynchronous teaching delivery method for medical ethics.
  • To evaluate the effectiveness of an interactive, scenario-based asynchronous module.
  • To compare learner engagement and outcomes with traditional asynchronous methods.

Main Methods:

  • Developed a novel asynchronous module using branching-logic, scenario-based cases.
  • Integrated videos, readings, tailored feedback, and reflective prompts.
  • Compared outcomes with a traditional recorded-lecture module in preclerkship medical students.

Main Results:

  • Learners reported significantly higher engagement, perceived learning, and autonomy (p < 0.01) with the novel module.
  • Knowledge scores were significantly higher compared to a traditional module (p = 0.02).
  • Participant feedback highlighted interactivity, relevance, and peer discussion opportunities.

Conclusions:

  • Branching-logic, scenario-based modules enhance engagement, autonomy, and knowledge acquisition in medical ethics.
  • This feasible, scalable, and adaptable approach can be used with widely available tools.
  • Blended approaches combining independent learning with synchronous discussion show promise for ethics education and critical thinking development.
