The purposes of this study were to: (a) determine nursing students' perceptions of the learning activities which contribute the most to their knowledge and skills; (b) determine students' perceptions of their learning difficulties; (c) compare the perceptions of English as a second language (ESL) and non-ESL students; (d) determine nursing faculty perceptions of ESL students' learning difficulties; (e) compare the perceptions of ESL students and faculty; and (f) identify needs for educational and/or supportive programmes for faculty and students. Differences in perceptions of faculty and students regarding areas of difficulty and students' needs may influence the services provided to students and therefore contribute to their lack of success and attrition. A questionnaire was given to students in the first and second years of the University of British Columbia (UBC)/Vancouver Hospital (VH) Nursing Programme to collect data regarding their high school and post-secondary education, date of arrival in Canada, first language, and their perceptions of helpfulness and difficulty of learning activities. A similar questionnaire was given to faculty members working with these students to collect data about their perceptions of areas of difficulty and activities that contribute the most to the learning of ESL students. Data analysis consisted of t-tests for statistical comparison of the responses of ESL and non-ESL students, and ESL students and faculty. The results indicated statistically significant differences between the perceptions of faculty and ESL students, particularly in the areas of difficulty. The need for educational programmes for both faculty and students was identified.
(a) 确定护理专业学生对最有助于其知识和技能提升的学习活动的看法；(b) 确定学生对自身学习困难的看法；(c) 比较将英语作为第二语言 (ESL) 的学生和非 ESL 学生的看法；(d) 确定护理教师对 ESL 学生学习困难的看法；(e) 比较 ESL 学生和教师的看法；以及 (f) 确定教师和学生对教育和/或支持项目的需求。教师和学生在困难领域和学生需求方面看法的差异可能会影响为学生提供的服务，进而导致他们学习成绩不佳和辍学。向英属哥伦比亚大学 (UBC)/温哥华医院 (VH) 护理项目一、二年级的学生发放了一份问卷，以收集有关他们的高中和高等教育、抵达加拿大的日期、母语，以及他们对学习活动的帮助程度和难度的看法的数据。向与这些学生合作的教师发放了一份类似的问卷，以收集他们对 ESL 学生学习困难领域和最有助于学习的活动的看法的数据。数据分析包括对 ESL 学生和非 ESL 学生、ESL 学生和教师的回答进行统计比较的 t 检验。结果表明，教师和 ESL 学生的看法之间存在统计学上的显著差异，尤其是在困难领域。确定了教师和学生对教育项目的需求。
