Case‐based learning combined with science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) education concept to improve clinical thinking of undergraduate nursing students: A randomized experiment
2020
Aims The present study was conducted to apply and examine case-based learning (CBL) and Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM) education concept in the training of nursing student's clinical thinking. Design A randomized experimental design with non-equivalent group pretest-posttest. Methods Participants were requested to participant in either of the two programmes: traditional education programme as a control group or CBL combined with STEM education concept (the STEM group). Questionnaires of critical thinking, self-directed learning, self-efficacy were administered before and after the experiment. Results Differences between the STEM group and control group were observed in critical thinking, self-directed learning, self-efficacy and career choice over one semester. Accordingly, CBL combined with STEM education concept enhanced the nursing student's clinical thinking.
