Makale Özeti:

By rapid developing of the network technology, the internet-based learning methods
are substituting the traditional classrooms making them expand to the virtual
network learning environment. The purpose of this study was to determine the
effectiveness of virtual systems on competency-based skills of first-year nursing
students.
Materials and methods: In this quasi-experimental study, 86 freshman nursing
students were recruited. Nursing Fundamentals and Skills (including theoretical and
practical credits) was decided as the teaching course. The theory and practical
contents were taught in one group by conventional method (face to face teaching,
demonstration on moulage) and for another by virtual simulation and interactive
multimedia. The two groups were the same for the content being taught, the
instructor and the final evaluation. Paired t-test and independent sample t-test was
used for statistical analysis.
Results: In theoretical exam, the mean score in virtual teaching group was higher
than traditional group (P<0.001); however, there was no significant difference
between the two groups in the result of objective structured clinical examination.
Conclusions: Using virtual systems is beneficial in enhancing student learning. Both
traditional and virtual methods can be used in teaching skills in nursing students;
however, it seems that combination of the two can facilitate knowledge transfer.
