Application of virtual simulation combined with flipped classroom in experimental teaching of the nursing care of falls in the elderly
To investigate the application effect of virtual simulation combined with flipped classroom in experimental teaching of the nursing care of falls in the elderly.
Methods
2
The 497 nursing undergraduates in the class of 2019 in Chongqing Medical University were selected as subjects and were then divided into control group (two classes with 251 students) and intervention group (two classes with 246 students). The students in the control group received traditional experimental teaching
and those in the intervention group received blended experimental teaching with virtual simulation combined with flipped classroom. At the end of the course
the use of virtual simulation platform was analyzed for the students in the intervention group
and a questionnaire survey and theoretical examination were used to compare the effect of experimental teaching between the two groups. SPSS 27.0 was used for the
t
-test and the chi-square test.
Results
2
The frequency of use of the virtual simulation platform was (2.65±1.38) times per person in the intervention group
with an online learning time of 54.12-147.32 minutes. The questionnaire survey showed that compared with the control group
the intervention group had significantly higher scores of the achievement of teaching objectives and teaching satisfaction (
P
<
0.05). Compared with the control group after teaching
the intervention group had significantly higher scores of teaching promotion in terms of stimulating learning interest
cultivating self-learning ability
developing clinical thinking ability
improving innovation
and enhancing health education ability (
P
<
0.05). The intervention group had a significantly higher theoretical examination score than the control group [(79.38±5.09) vs. (77.88±4.97)
P
<
0.05].
Conclusions
2
In the blended experimental teaching of the nursing care of falls in the elderly
virtual simulation combined with flipped classroom can help students master related knowledge and skills and cultivate their self-learning ability
