Information and Communication Technology (ICT) opens up new possibilities for introducing innovative teaching and learning methods to deliver education in different educational areas. Use of internet and social media has grown rapidly and is a key way in how nurses and nurse educator students find information. However, the evidence is still lacking how nurse educator students use social media.
The aim of this study is to describe nurse educator students' use of social media and the ways in which their educational needs are related to social media.
The data were collected using a structured questionnaire that included one open question. Altogether, 49 nurse educator students completed and returned the questionnaire (response rate 96%). The quantitative data were analysed using statistical programme SPPS and content analysis.
While many nurse educator students reported using the tools of social media, others claimed that they do not use social media at all. Facebook was most common (53% use it every day) and YouTube (17%) the second most common form of social media used to support daily living. The participants reported using YouTube (6% use it every day) and Facebook (4%) most often as support in their studies. They reported using Second life as virtual reality form of social media, the least. The most common educational needs of nurse educator students include receiving more in-depth information about how to use social media, as well as more practice in using it.
In the future, the education of the nurse educator students should include even more in-depth information about the forms of social media and about the advantages of using it in teaching. The education should encourage nurse educator students and provide them with more possibilities to train and make use of the benefits of social media as support in their daily lives and studies. There is need for more robust evidence of social media use in nurse educator students education.
信息通信技术（ICT）为引入创新教学方法以在不同教育领域开展教育开辟了新的可能性。互联网和社交媒体的使用迅速增长，是护士及护理专业学生获取信息的关键途径。然而，关于护理专业学生如何使用社交媒体的证据仍然不足。
本研究旨在描述护理专业学生对社交媒体的使用情况以及他们的教育需求与社交媒体的关联方式。
使用包含一个开放性问题的结构化问卷收集数据。共有49名护理专业学生完成并返还了问卷（回复率96%）。定量数据使用统计软件SPPS进行分析，并进行内容分析。
虽然许多护理专业学生报告使用社交媒体工具，但也有其他人声称他们根本不使用社交媒体。脸书最为常用（53%的人每天使用），YouTube（17%）是用于支持日常生活的第二大常用社交媒体形式。参与者报告在学习中最常使用YouTube（6%的人每天使用）和脸书（4%）。他们报告使用“第二人生”这种虚拟现实形式的社交媒体最少。护理专业学生最常见的教育需求包括获得更多关于如何使用社交媒体的深入信息，以及更多使用社交媒体的实践机会。
未来，护理专业学生的教育应包括更多关于社交媒体形式及其在教学中使用优势的深入信息。教育应鼓励护理专业学生，并为他们提供更多培训机会，让他们能够利用社交媒体的优势来支持日常生活和学习。需要有更确凿的证据证明社交媒体在护理专业学生教育中的应用。
