Agile methodology (AM) is an innovative, active, team-based learning method that enhances higher-order thinking (metacognitive ability), collaboration, hands-on training, and student engagement in the classroom and clinical environment. Exploring the student's opinions of AM in teaching helps understand how agile can be utilized in higher education to positively improve learning ability, leadership, and teamwork. Hence, the study aimed to develop the agile scrum perception tool (ASPT) to evaluate the opinions on AM among nursing students.
A cross-sectional design was carried out to develop ASPT in different phases. The tool was initially derived from focus group discussion and literature review. The preliminary draft was revised and modified based on expert review and suggestions by content and construct validity. Reliability was calculated in terms of internal consistency. The developed tool was evaluated using data from 200 4-year nursing students.
A total of 23 items of ASPT have adequate psychometric properties in terms of reliability and validity. Internal consistency was checked by coefficient alpha, which was 0.87. Construct validity was analyzed by factor analysis; all items were loaded in 6 factors, accounting for 54% of the variance in the total ASPT score.
ASPT has good validity, reliability, and broader scope in medical and allied education related to project management, clinical teaching, and classroom teaching.
敏捷方法（AM）是一种创新的、积极的、基于团队的学习方法，可提高高阶思维（元认知能力）、协作能力、实践培训以及学生在课堂和临床环境中的参与度。探索学生对教学中敏捷方法的看法有助于了解如何在高等教育中运用敏捷方法来积极提高学习能力、领导力和团队合作能力。因此，本研究旨在开发敏捷Scrum认知工具（ASPT），以评估护理专业学生对敏捷方法的看法。
采用横断面设计分不同阶段开发ASPT。该工具最初源自焦点小组讨论和文献综述。根据专家评审意见以及内容效度和结构效度的建议对初稿进行修订和完善。通过计算内部一致性来评估信度。使用来自200名四年制护理专业学生的数据对所开发的工具进行评估。
ASPT的23个项目在信度和效度方面具有足够的心理测量学特性。通过计算α系数来检验内部一致性，结果为0.87。通过因子分析来分析结构效度；所有项目均加载到6个因子中，占ASPT总分方差的54%。
ASPT在与项目管理、临床教学和课堂教学相关的医学及相关教育领域具有良好的效度、信度和更广泛的应用范围。
