Student knowledge acquisition and retention are essential in nursing training. This study examined differences in content knowledge acquisition and retention between traditional and flipped classroom (FC) formats.
A pretest-posttest quasiexperimental design with a follow-up test was used for this study of associate degree nursing students in a Hong Kong community college. The control group ( = 141) included nursing students in a traditional classroom (TC) setting before COVID-19 compared with nursing students in an FC ( = 130) setting during the pandemic. The effects were evaluated before the course, postcourse, and 3 months after the course.
Content knowledge scores for both groups improved after the course. Students in the FC performed better in the short-term (posttest immediately after the course) and long-term (follow-up-test 3 months later) than students in the TC.
Implementing the FC method effectively promoted students' knowledge acquisition and retention. .
学生的知识获取和保留对于护理培训至关重要。本研究考察了传统课堂和翻转课堂(FC)两种模式在内容知识获取和保留方面的差异。
本研究采用了预测试-后测试准实验设计,并进行了随访测试,参与者为香港一所社区学院的护理专业大专学生。对照组(n=141)包括在 COVID-19 之前接受传统课堂(TC)教学的护理专业学生,而实验组(n=130)则包括在疫情期间接受 FC 教学的护理专业学生。在课程开始前、课程结束后和课程结束 3 个月后对效果进行了评估。
两组学生的内容知识得分在课程结束后都有所提高。与 TC 组的学生相比,FC 组的学生在短期(课程结束后立即进行的后测)和长期(课程结束 3 个月后的随访测试)的表现都更好。
有效地实施 FC 方法能够促进学生的知识获取和保留。
