About this study

Official title: Module Based Learning and Mobile Application Based Learning Regarding Facility Based Newborn Care Among Nursing Students

The study evaluates the effectiveness of Module based learning and Mobile application based learning regarding Facility based newborn care among nursing students.Total 70 Nursing students were randomly allocated to MBL and MABL group . First 35 students received MBL based teaching and next 35 students received MABL teaching.

Read the detailed description

a comparative study was done to assess the effectiveness of Module based learning and Mobile application based learning regarding Facility based newborn care among nursing students.

MODULE GROUP

Day 1: Pre assessment of Knowledge through Structured knowledge questionnaire was done and practice through observation checklist by OSCE method .

Day 2: Module based Teaching administered to nursing students who were present on the data collection. Teaching and Hands on sessions were given to students by investigator. Introduction regarding Module and topics: Prevention of infection (Hand washing), Kangaroo Mother Care, Feeding of normal and low birth weight babies (Attachment during feeding, Paladai Feeding), Common Procedures (Oxygen administration, Insertion and Orogastric Tube Feeding, Weight Recording of a Newborn)

Day 15th = Post-test of Knowledge through Structured knowledge questionnaire was done in BSc. Nursing 3rd year classroom and practice through observation checklist by OSCE method Post-test of knowledge took 45 minutes.

MOBILE APPLICATION BASED GROUP

Day 16th = Pre assessment of Knowledge through Structured knowledge questionnaire was done in BSc. Nursing 3rd year classroom of M.M Institute of Nursing and practice through observation checklist by OSCE method

Day 17th = Mobile Application based Teaching administered to nursing students who were randomly selected. Teaching and videos were given to students by investigator in MM Institute of Nursing.
