Challenges associated with supervision of undergraduate research projects by nurse educators in South Africa
Successful nursing research is determined by the quality of research supervision by nurse educators. This study aimed to explore challenges encountered by educators when implementing research supervision for undergraduate nursing students. A qualitative, exploratory-descriptive research design was employed through semi-structured interviews. Data were collected from twenty-seven participants who were selected purposefully from four nursing campuses located in two provinces. Thematic analysis was used to analyse data in the study. The study found that inadequate nurse educators’ research supervision skills, lack of students’ commitment to research activities, inadequate infrastructure, staff shortage and time constraints were identified as challenges. It is recommended that novice nursing research supervisors should be guided on how to supervise research students and be taught the importance of research.
期刊介绍：
International Journal of Africa Nursing Sciences (IJANS) is an international scientific journal published by Elsevier. The broad-based journal was founded on two key tenets, i.e. to publish the most exciting research with respect to the subjects of Nursing and Midwifery in Africa, and secondly, to advance the international understanding and development of nursing and midwifery in Africa, both as a profession and as an academic discipline. The fully refereed journal provides a forum for all aspects of nursing and midwifery sciences, especially new trends and advances. The journal call for original research papers, systematic and scholarly review articles, and critical papers which will stimulate debate on research, policy, theory or philosophy of nursing as related to nursing and midwifery in Africa, technical reports, and short communications, and which will meet the journal''s high academic and ethical standards. Manuscripts of nursing practice, education, management, and research are encouraged. The journal values critical scholarly debate on issues that have strategic significance for educators, practitioners, leaders and policy-makers of nursing and midwifery in Africa. The journal publishes the highest quality scholarly contributions reflecting the diversity of nursing, and is also inviting international scholars who are engaged with nursing and midwifery in Africa to contribute to the journal. We will only publish work that demonstrates the use of rigorous methodology as well as by publishing papers that highlight the theoretical underpinnings of nursing and midwifery as it relates to the Africa context.
