Mixed Teaching Methods Using a Flipped Classroom and Digital Unfolding Case to Enhance Undergraduate Nursing Students’ Knowledge of the Nursing Process  

Teaching the nursing process to undergraduate nursing students is challenging, as they face difficulties related to collecting patient data and struggle to understand the relationship between the collected data and the patient's needs. This study employed a descriptive design with a qualitative content analysis approach to investigate nursing students’ experiences of learning the nursing process through a mixed teaching method using a flipped classroom and a digital unfolding case. Their experiences with the applied teaching method and its influence on their learning outcomes were shared through their participation in two focus group interviews. The students experienced the applied teaching method as an important preparatory training, as the acquired knowledge was transferable to real patient cases in clinical practice.
