Current techniques to teach psychomotor skills to nursing students involve the traditional modeled performance by an instructor followed by rote memorization and practice. This outdated model presents many issues including no reference to refer back to, lacks technology integration, and only meets a few learning styles. A developmental study utilizing the social media platform YouTube was examined to gain student's perspective on this as a teaching tool to assist in skill acquisition.
Do nursing students, who are enrolled in a Bachelor of Science Nursing (BSN) program and who are taught psychomotor nursing skills via demonstration on the social media platform YouTube, prefer this technology to traditional demonstration, and to evaluate their overall perceptions of YouTube?
Data collection was done utilizing a nursing cohort enrolled in a BSN program. Participants were split into two groups. The control group was taught intravenous (IV) skills in the traditional teacher demonstration followed by practice. Experimental group was given access to a YouTube video series consisting of the identified IV skills. After testing for competency was concluded, control group was given access to the videos. A questionnaire was developed and sent out for evaluation.
Participants reported that their preferred learning style when learning new nursing skills was visual (41.7%) followed by a combination of visual, tactile, and auditory (41.7%). All respondents (100%) reported YouTube videos increased their learning. Respondents (100%) also noted that having access to the videos better prepared them. In experimental group, all participants (100%) watched the videos, and in the control group, only (16.7%) of students watched the videos after the skill had been learned.
Results demonstrated that students prefer YouTube videos when learning new skills. They reported feeling better prepared to learn. YouTube is a potential way to increase skill acquisition and integrate technology into the nursing curriculum.
当前向护理专业学生传授心理运动技能的技术包括由教师进行传统的示范表演，然后是死记硬背和练习。这种过时的模式存在许多问题，包括没有可参考的内容、缺乏技术整合，并且只满足少数学习风格。一项利用社交媒体平台YouTube的发展性研究进行了调查，以了解学生对其作为辅助技能获取的教学工具的看法。
就读于护理学理学学士（BSN）项目且通过社交媒体平台YouTube上的示范学习心理运动护理技能的护理专业学生，是否比传统示范更喜欢这项技术，并评估他们对YouTube的总体看法？
数据收集是利用一个就读于BSN项目的护理群体进行的。参与者被分成两组。对照组通过传统的教师示范然后练习来教授静脉注射（IV）技能。实验组可以访问一个由确定的IV技能组成的YouTube视频系列。在完成能力测试后，对照组也可以访问这些视频。编制并发放了一份问卷进行评估。
参与者报告说，他们学习新护理技能时喜欢的学习方式是视觉（41.7%），其次是视觉、触觉和听觉相结合（41.7%）。所有受访者（100%）都报告说YouTube视频增加了他们的学习。受访者（100%）还指出，能够访问这些视频让他们准备得更充分。在实验组中，所有参与者（100%）都观看了视频，而在对照组中，只有16.7%的学生在学会技能后观看了视频。
结果表明，学生在学习新技能时更喜欢YouTube视频。他们报告说感觉准备得更好去学习。YouTube是增加技能获取并将技术整合到护理课程中的一种潜在方式。
