Although evidence-based practice is a tenet of nursing education, students struggle to learn information literacy skills that transition to practice. This quality improvement project created an online learning experience for prelicensure baccalaureate nursing students to increase their ability to locate and critically appraise evidence.
A framework based on nursing and information literacy standards was developed to establish baccalaureate-level information literacy knowledge and skills. This framework and cognitive constructivism were used to design a learning experience. The intervention was integrated into a research and theory course.
Students demonstrated a higher level of competence in identifying types of sources and using information ethically but had a lower level of competence in defining their information needs and locating relevant resources.
Findings support the positive effects of an online learning experience to increase competence in the knowledge and skills expected of information-literate baccalaureate-prepared nurses. .
尽管循证实践是护理教育的一个原则,但学生在学习将信息素养技能转化为实践的过程中仍存在困难。本质量改进项目为护理专业的本科学生创建了一个在线学习体验,以提高他们查找和批判性评估证据的能力。
基于护理和信息素养标准的框架被开发出来,以建立本科水平的信息素养知识和技能。该框架和认知建构主义被用来设计学习体验。干预措施被整合到研究和理论课程中。
学生在识别资源类型和使用信息方面表现出更高的能力,但在确定自己的信息需求和查找相关资源方面的能力较低。
研究结果支持了在线学习体验对提高信息素养本科护理学生知识和技能的积极影响。
