| 总结: | Introduction: Most nursing educators strive for excellence in both academics and practical abilities. It’s a method for determining how successful nurse educators perform. Nowadays, nursing learners are encouraged to acquire a continually increasing body of information and to employ technical expertise in a world of rapid change, as portrayed by concept mapping care plans. This concept mapping care plan (CMCP) was validated and evaluated in three rounds by 10 expert panels implementing the Delphi method. It was used to assess nursing students’ academic performance in clinical practice. Methods: This quasi-experimental study was conducted on 218 second-year nursing students, which having 109 respondents respectively. Respondents were randomly assigned into a control group (lecture-based) and an experimental group (concept mapping). The respondents was chosen based on zones from four nursing colleges under Institut Latihan Kementerian Kesihatan Malaysia (ILKKM). Significant p-values were considered as those less than 0.05. Results: The experimental group’s mean CMCP scores during clinical practices were 65.23, whereas the control groups were 59.33. The paired t-test with a p-value of 0.05 indicates that there are significantly different between the experimental and control groups. Conclusion: The purpose of employing concept mapping as a teaching method during clinical setting is to allow students to examine theory knowledge and apply it in a clinical setting. Researchers believe that CMCP can be used to replace current nursing process used in clinical practice. Furthermore, CMCP can help students enhance their learning and become much more innovative. © 2022 UPM Press. All rights reserved. |
