Abstract:

Objective To explore the application effect of a blended teaching model aimed at enhancing practical application skills in the teaching of statistical methods for undergraduate nursing students. Methods Two classes from five undergraduate nursing classes of the Nursing College of a university in grade 2022 were classified into the experimental group or control group through the random number table method. The experimental group was carried out a blended teaching model aimed at enhancing practical application skills，while the control group was taught by online self-directed learning combined with traditional offline lectures. After the course，the theoretical examination scores on statistical methods，students’ evaluations of the teaching approach，and the completion status of investigations were compared. Results In the experimental group，the scores were higher than those in the control group，with statistically significant differences（P<0.05） including t-tests，fourfold table chi-square tests，one-way analysis of variance，non-parametric tests for two independent samples，multiple linear regression analysis，and binary logistic regression analysis，as well as the total score. However，no significant differences were found in the classification of data types and correlation analysis scores（P>0.05）. The experimental group also scored higher than the control group in the overall evaluation of the teaching approach，as well as the dimensions of learning motivation and participation，learning ability and research literacy，and recognition of the teaching approach，with statistically significant differences（P<0.05）. Conclusion A blended teaching model aiming at enhancing practical application skills can stimulate students’ enthusiasm and participation，improve their learning ability，task completion rate，recognition of teaching methods，and level of knowledge in statistical methods.
