To identify studies reporting mobile device integration into undergraduate and graduate nursing curricula. To explore the potential use of Rogers' Diffusion of Innovation model as a framework to guide implementation of mobile devices into nursing curricula.
Literature review and thematic categorization.
Literature published up until June 2013 was searched using EBSCO, PubMed, and Google Scholar.
The literature was reviewed for research articles pertaining to mobile device use in nursing education. Research articles were grouped by study design, and articles were classified by: 1) strategies for individual adopters and 2) strategies for organizations. Rogers' Diffusion of Innovation theory was used to categorize reported implementation strategies.
Fifty-two research studies were identified. Strategies for implementation were varied, and challenges to integrating mobile devices include lack of administrative support and time/funding to educate faculty as well as students. Overall, the use of mobile devices appears to provide benefits to nursing students; however the research evidence is limited.
Anticipating challenges and ensuring a well laid out strategic plan can assist in supporting successful integration of mobile devices.
识别报告将移动设备整合到本科和研究生护理课程中的研究。探讨将罗杰斯创新扩散模型作为指导将移动设备应用于护理课程实施的框架的潜在用途。
文献综述与主题分类。
使用EBSCO、PubMed和谷歌学术搜索截至2013年6月发表的文献。
对有关护理教育中移动设备使用的研究文章进行综述。研究文章按研究设计分组，并按以下方式分类：1）个体采用者的策略和2）组织的策略。罗杰斯创新扩散理论用于对报告的实施策略进行分类。
确定了52项研究。实施策略各不相同，整合移动设备面临的挑战包括缺乏行政支持以及用于培训教师和学生的时间/资金。总体而言，移动设备的使用似乎给护理专业学生带来了益处；然而研究证据有限。
预见挑战并确保制定完善的战略计划有助于支持移动设备的成功整合。
