Abstract
Objective: To explore key elements of digital resilience in nursing undergraduates, providing a foundation for comprehensive assessment and training during medical colleges' digital transformation.
Methods: Conducted semi-structured interviews with 20 nursing undergraduates experienced in online learning or digital resource use from March-May 2024, utilizing descriptive qualitative research and directed content analysis.
Results: Identified five themes with nineteen sub-themes: understanding digital threats (information overload, decreased learning engagement, impaired social interaction, digital technology failures, digital security risks), knowing coping strategies (seeking teacher support, seeking peer support, seeking social support), learning knowledge and skills (nursing expertise, autonomous learning ability, digital technology application skills, digital learning skills, digital communication skills), overcoming digital threats stress (psychological resilience, learning perseverance), and adapt to digital environment (self-regulation and motivational efficacy, online learning self-efficacy, digital skills self-efficacy, social interaction self-efficacy).
Conclusion: Nursing undergraduates' digital resilience is multifaceted. Medical colleges should strengthen these aspects to empower students to confidently navigate digital risks and adapt to educational and healthcare digital transformation.
期刊介绍:
Frontiers in Medicine publishes rigorously peer-reviewed research linking basic research to clinical practice and patient care, as well as translating scientific advances into new therapies and diagnostic tools. Led by an outstanding Editorial Board of international experts, this multidisciplinary open-access journal is at the forefront of disseminating and communicating scientific knowledge and impactful discoveries to researchers, academics, clinicians and the public worldwide.
In addition to papers that provide a link between basic research and clinical practice, a particular emphasis is given to studies that are directly relevant to patient care. In this spirit, the journal publishes the latest research results and medical knowledge that facilitate the translation of scientific advances into new therapies or diagnostic tools. The full listing of the Specialty Sections represented by Frontiers in Medicine is as listed below. As well as the established medical disciplines, Frontiers in Medicine is launching new sections that together will facilitate
