Keywords:
Authentic Learning Approach, Moral Reasoning, Nursing StudentsAbstract
In education, authentic learning is an instructional approach that allows students to explore, discuss, and meaningfully construct concepts and relationships in contexts that involve real-world problems and projects that are relevant to the learner. This mixed methods research aimed to examine the effects of the authentic learning approach to enhance moral reasoning among nursing students at Boromarajonnani College of Nursing Songkhla. The sample was 78 third-year nursing students. Research instruments consisted of 1) an instructional model based on the authentic learning approach, which included a conference on ethics, as well as 2) a questionnaire on opinion towards the model. Both were verified, yielding a S-CVI score of .86, and a Cronbach alpha coefficient of .93. Data were analyzed using frequency, percentage, mean, standard deviation, pair t-test, thematic grouping, and summarization. The research results were as follows.
1. Moral reasoning score of nursing students was significantly higher after than before using the instructional model (t= 7.69, p<.001).
2. Result of the evaluation showed a decrease in performance errors and an increase in awareness of patients' rights and confidence.
This instructional model might be used for enhancing moral reasoning among nursing students and their ability to cope with moral conflicts.
