- Evidence from multiple studies shows that simulation in nursing education provides benefits in cognitive, psychomotor and affective learning area, thereby improves the quality of professional training (Foronda et al., 2013, Lee and Oh, 2015, Martins et al., 2018) and it can effectively replace up to 50 % of clinical hours with no change in student critical thinking skills, knowledge, or NCLEX licensure exam pass rates (Hayden et al., 2014).

Jul 1, 2022 · Games provide nursing students with an experience where they can apply theoretical knowledge under specific conditions. This finding was reported in the descriptive study where students reported that they learned best to apply theoretical knowledge while playing games (Koivisto et al., 2016, Koivisto et al., 2016).
Our findings suggest that simulation games could be used to improve nursing students’ cognitive skills and their readiness for clinical situations they can face in real life. Therefore, the use of games in nursing education should be supported and should be integrated into nursing curricula.
Oct 1, 2022 · This approach was used to teach clinical skills, consolidate theoretical learning and apply knowledge in simulated healthcare environments (Kubin, 2020). Students were commonly asked to work on case studies and formulate nursing diagnoses and interventions (Anguas-Gracia et al., 2021).
Oct 1, 2024 · The findings in RCTs indicated that serious games had a beneficial impact on the knowledge of undergraduate nursing students when compared with the control group (SMD 1.24, 95 % CI 0.52–1.96; P<0.001), as illustrated in Fig. S3A. However, there were no notable disparities observed in QETs.
Oct 7, 2024 · Simulation-Based Learning (SBL) serves as a valuable pedagogical approach in nursing education, encompassing varying levels of fidelity. While previous reviews have highlighted the potential effectiveness of SBL in enhancing nursing students’ competencies, a gap persists in the evidence-base addressing the long-term retention of these competencies.

Sep 30, 2024 · In particular, it is stated that simulation games can be facilitators for nursing students to make a connection between theoretical knowledge and practice.
The purpose of this review is twofold: to analyze (a) game elements in simulation games and (b) the instruments used to assess nursing students' experiences in learning clinical reasoning (CR) by using simulation games. Method. The review includes nine studies retrieved from eight electronic databases.
