Instructional Design and Development with Use Simulation Set Collaborate the Process of Reflective Thinking to Enhance Decision-Making Skills in Patient Critical Care for Nursing student’s
Main Article Content
Abstract
This study employed a research and developmental study aiming; 1) to develop simulation based learning with reflective thinking to enhance decision making skills regarding critical care, and 2) to investigate an efficacy of simulation based leaning with reflective thinking. Participants were 53 nurse students, Boromarajonani College of Nursing, Phrae. Research instruments included; a set of simulation based learning with reflective thinking, teaching manual, a semi-structured interview guideline, and questionnaire assessing decision making skills in critical care. Data was analyzed using t-test comparison to evaluate the effectiveness of simulation based learning system. Also, learning system was investigated by qualitative data analysis.
The finding revealed that, there were 3 key elements of simulation based learning including; 1) input involving an infrastructure supporting leaning process, 2) process involving system and learning activities, and 3) learning outcomes. After testing the developing the SBL system, nurse students reported significantly higher level of decision making skill in critical care (p<.01)
This study indicates that, simulation based learning can promote students’ critical thinking, decision making and nursing practice skills. However, good design and preparation of study material and teaching staff are necessary.
