DEVELOPMENT OF INSTRUCTIONAL MODEL WITH SIMULATED SITUATIONS TO ENHANCE PERFORMANCE IN EMERGENCY NURSING OF NURSING STUDENTS
Main Article Content
Abstract
This research and development study aimed to examine the current teaching conditions, develop an instructional model, and evaluate the effectiveness of a simulation-based teaching model to enhance emergency nursing competencies among nursing students. The study was conducted in three phases: 1) A survey of 15 nursing instructors to assess current teaching practices; 2) Development of a teaching model based on phase 1 results and literature review, validated by three experts; and 3) Evaluation of the model's effectiveness using a quasi-experimental design with 60 nursing students (30 each in experimental and control groups). The research findings revealed: 1) Current teaching methods inadequately support the application of theoretical knowledge to emergency nursing practice; 2) The developed teaching model comprises three stages: preparation, implementation, and evaluation; 3) Post-intervention, the experimental group showed significantly higher emergency nursing practice scores compared to their pre-test scores and the control group's scores (p < .05). The study concludes that the developed simulation-based teaching model effectively enhances nursing students' emergency nursing competencies. This model offers a promising approach for bridging the theory-practice gap in nursing education, particularly in emergency care contexts. Further research is recommended to explore the long-term impacts and applicability of this model across various nursing specialties.
