Effectiveness Of Simulation-Based Cooperative Learning Method Electrocardiography Education

Abstract

Objective: The study was conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of basic electrocardiography education designed in accordance with the simulation-based cooperative learning method. Methods: This is a single group, quasi-experimental study. A two-day electrocardiography(ECG) education program was designed for the final yearnursing students (n=125). Data were gathered with pre-posttest, Students’ Satisfaction and Self-Confidence Scale, Simulation Design Scale and Educational Practices Questionnaire. Results: Theknowledge pretest score and the knowledge posttest score’ averagesof the students were 40.36±20.24 and 75.39±11.46 respectively, with a significant difference (p=.001; t=-14.78). The mean score for satisfaction with current learning was 4.77±.42 and the mean score for self-confidence was 4.51±.54. The mean total score for Simulation Design Scale was 4.44±.67 and the mean total score for Educational Practices Questionnaire was 4.66±.56. Conclusion: After simulation-based cooperative learning method, knowledge and skills of the students improved also had high self-confidence and satisfaction with learning.
