Abstract Nursing, as a practice and active learning profession by caring for patients, has been the preferred method of achieving competency in nursing practice. Faced with increasingly complex clinical situations, nurses must respond with accurate clinical judgment. It is crucial to bridge the gap that exists between what students learn in the classroom and how they apply what they learn in their clinical practice. The major focus of clinical education is facilitating the development of knowledge application, accurate clinical judgment and skill development.Simulation is designed to encourage active participation in the learning process allowing students to develop psychomotor skills in a safe environment. Simulation is the imitation of the operation of a real-world process or system over time. The act of simulating something first requires that a model be developed; this model represents the key characteristics or behaviors/functions of the selected physical or abstract system or process. The model represents the system itself, whereas the simulation represents the operation of the system over time. In order to increase learning opportunities for students, in recent decades faculty members tend to use simulation, such as the use of mannequins and standardized patients. The present study aimed to evaluate the impact of using simulation-based learning on nursing students’ performance, self-efficacy, satisfaction and confidence uring pediatric injection administration. |
