Teaching Psychomotor skills constitute a significant element in undergraduate nursing education.
Psychomotor skills training for nursing students involves many steps. They are lecture-demonstration, simulation practice, followed by practice in clinical settings to gain competency in psychomotor skills. However, during this COVID 19 pandemic nursing students, especially beginners in the nursing programs, are restricted from clinical practice for the time being due to safety concerns. Therefore, Academicians are finding it challenging to integrate theory to practice, be in a simulated laboratory setting, or real-time practice in the clinical areas. The effectiveness of virtual psychomotor skill training is yet to be researched in our local contexts, especially from the students' point of view.
My uni has been using Zoom and collaborate for demonstrations but we won’t get the practical application until we have CPU probably in November if the threat of COVID lessens. It certainly is a challenging area if students don’t have prior health experience.
vic i i have a lab that records experiential skills to nurses then can be used to review steps taken to learn skills
That's very good.Thanks for sharing.We had been always using traditional teaching and now caught with COVID 19.We are learning from our mistakes.thanks
