Abstract:

Objective To explore the effects of outcome-based education（OBE） in Pediatric Nursing. Methods The convenient sampling was used. Students from one class of nursing major of 2017 in a higher vocational college were assigned to the control group（n=41） and task-based teaching was implemented. Students from one class of 2018 were selected as the experimental group（n=48） and OBE was used. After the intervention,students’ autonomous learning abilities were compared. The performance of students in the experimental group were summarized. Results After the intervention,the total score of autonomous learning ability of students in the experimental group was（69.0±7.4）,while it was（60.6±6.5） in the control group（t=5.675,P<0.001）. The expected learning outcome compliance rate of six-dimensional goals of students in the experimental group was 100%. The expected learning outcome corresponding to high-dimensional goals had increased. Conclusion The OBE in Pediatric Nursing takes the outcomes as the assessment criteria. It can improve students’ autonomous learning ability,promote the achievement of instructional objectives and improve teaching quality.
