Effects of an Interaction and Cognitive Engagement-Based Blended Teaching on Obstetric and Gynecology Nursing Course

Abstract

An interaction and cognitive engagement-based blended teaching mode was applied to obstetrics and gynecology nursing course to examine the effects on nursing students’ competency, self-directed learning level. A randomized controlled trail design was designed. The experimental group engaged with the blended teaching, and the control group was assigned a usual teaching. The level of competency, self-directed learning was compared between two groups. The total score and scores of each dimension of core competence and self-induced learning ability in intervention group were all higher than those in control group (p < 0.05).
