Summary

The action research aims to enhance clinical nursing skills of nursing students through the implementation of the SimCapture cloud management system. Research has found that traditional teaching methods are insufficient in cultivating students' clinical skills, and students' learning characteristics and technological developments have also placed new demands on teaching. Although the research team previously attempted blended learning and simulation-based teaching, students' technical grades have shown a declining trend. To address this issue, the researchers plan to implement the SimCapture system and, based on observational learning theory, design teaching activities to enhance students' learning motivation and self-efficacy, ultimately improving their clinical skills.

Conditions

• Motivation
• Clinical Skills Training
• Nursing Students
• OSCE (Objective Structured Clinical Examination)

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
BEHAVIORAL	Cloud-based learning platform	The SimCapture system is the technological backbone of the intervention, transforming the way clinical skills are taught and learned. 1. System Access and Structure:Both faculty and students are provided with individual accounts to access the SimCapture platform. 2. The system facilitates the organization of students into groups, enabling collaborative learning and peer feedback. 3. Digital Evaluation Tools:Faculty develop standardized, digital tools within SimCapture to assess student performance of clinical skills.These tools ensure consistent and objective evaluation. 4. Recording and Feedback:Students record their practice sessions using personal devices (e.g., smartphones).These recordings are uploaded to the SimCapture cloud, creating a repository of learning resources. 5. Faculty use tablets to provide specific, time-stamped feedback on student performance directly within the SimCapture system.
