Abstract
Background
Mobile robotic telepresence provides an equitable opportunity for distance learners to collaborate with face-to-face counterparts through live simulation at a campus-based point of learning. The Technology Acceptance Model serves as the theoretical framework regarding ease of use and perceived usefulness of telepresence robots as the stress and anxiety of simulation and novel technologies can impact learning.
Methods
Using peer/collaborative learning, waves of undergraduate nursing student dyads (distance/telepresence with face-to-face) provided patient care in multiroom simulations. The correlational, cross-sectional study surveyed students to assess a relationship between anxiety, use of new technology, and student satisfaction, and self-confidence in learning.
Results
State trait anxiety inventory scores were significantly higher in distance/telepresence students. The mean overall score for satisfaction/self-confidence in learning was favorable for all students.
Conclusion
Telepresence robots in simulation may increase learner acceptance and readiness to use such technology within their future practice.
期刊介绍:
Clinical Simulation in Nursing is an international, peer reviewed journal published online monthly. Clinical Simulation in Nursing is the official journal of the International Nursing Association for Clinical Simulation & Learning (INACSL) and reflects its mission to advance the science of healthcare simulation.
We will review and accept articles from other health provider disciplines, if they are determined to be of interest to our readership. The journal accepts manuscripts meeting one or more of the following criteria:
Research articles and literature reviews (e.g. systematic, scoping, umbrella, integrative, etc.) about simulation
Innovative teaching/learning strategies using simulation
Articles updating guidelines, regulations, and legislative policies that impact simulation
Leadership for simulation
Simulation operations
Clinical and academic uses of simulation.
