No full textNursing students' satisfaction with the curriculum: An integrative review
No full textBackground: Student satisfaction is one indicator of quality in higher education, allowing access to funding and coming with repercussions on student performance. This theme is considered complex and highly studied; however, in the nursing literature, there are no studies that summarize and combine the variables and predictors of satisfaction, as well as the existing conceptual models.
Purpose: The purpose of this study is to define the following: 1) nursing students’ academic satisfaction, 2) the existing theoretical models, 3) the academic satisfaction trend during the course, 4) the differences in academic satisfaction level between nursing student characteristics, and 5) the variables involved in the satisfaction process.
Methods: An integrative review using Whittemore and Knafl’s (2005) methodologies was conducted. The elec- tronic databases CINAHL, PubMed, Cochrane, and Scopus were used. Two reviewers independently conducted the quality appraisal of the selected studies using the checklist proposed by Edwards (2015) and the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) tool.
Findings: Nineteen papers were included. The articles were published between 1990 and 2018.
Conclusions: The review highlights the lack of a shared conceptual framework to guide the empirical research in the nursing degree field. Four dimensions that predict satisfaction with the curriculum have been identified: faculty, curriculum, social, and development
The e-learning perceptions of nursing students during the COVID-19 pandemic: A mixed-methods systematic review
Full text linkBackground and Objective: Governments around the world implemented lockdown measures to flatten the pandemic curve of COVID-19 and, as a result, schools, colleges and universities in the highly contagious areas of the world closed and shifted from face-to-face learning to online methodologies. The rapid change in teaching methodology introduced many health professional students to different approaches to learning which can be used anywhere and at any time. The aim of this study is to analyze nursing students’ perceptions of e-learning during the COVID-19 pandemic. Methods: A mixed-methods systematic review was conducted. We considered PubMed, CINAHL, Scopus, Eric and Business Source Complete. All empiri-cal peer-reviewed studies were included if they investigated perceptions of e-learning education of nursing students during the COVID-19 pandemic, with quantitative, qualitative or mixed-methods design, published between 2020 and June 2022 in English or Italian. The extracted data were combined using a data-based convergent synthesis approach. Results: A total of 11 studies were selected. Four themes emerged: promoting valuable learning, challenging experiences and critical perceptions, using online learning in the future and ele-ments affecting e-learning effectiveness. Conclusions: This review has explicit and practical recommendations for universities to make advancements in their digital systems not only for students’ use but also for teachers

No full textHealth habits of nursing students: A longitudinal study of health perceptions and health habits
No full textAims and objectives: To examine nursing students’ health habits. More specifically, the objectives were to determine whether there were any changes in their health habits during their course of study, and to understand whether the students’ perceptions about good health conditions cohered with their health-related behaviour. Background: The transition from high school to university has an undesirable effect on students’ health habits, and nursing students’ unhealthy behaviours may prevent them from helping patients improve their poor health habits. Design: A longitudinal design was used. The study followed the recommendations of STROBE (Strengthening the Reporting of Observational studies in Epidemiology). Methods: All students were recruited from a nursing science degree course in an Italian university. The sample consisted of 351 nursing students. Data were collected at the baseline during their entrance into the university (T0) and at the end of their third year of coursework (T3). We developed the Nursing Student Health Habits Scale, which was administered by a trained researcher. The McNemar test and the Wilcoxon signed-rank test to evaluate the differences in health habits between T0 and T3, and a logistics model to assess the factors influencing students’ good health perceptions were used. Results: From T0 to T3, there were decreases in the number of students who requested physician consultations (p =.01) and increases in those who exercised daily (p =.003). There was also a change in the nutrition model (p =.018). In the multivariate model, physician consultations for medical problems and performing physical exercise were factors influencing good health perceptions. Conclusions: Future research is needed to illuminate other aspects of students’ health habits. Relevance to clinical practice: Universities are advised to address these problems by reflecting on undergraduate and postgraduate curriculum content concerning health management and disease prevention
