Abstract

Objective To explore the open experimental training model using multi-media control system for nursing students to develop their core competencies. Methods Different model designs of multi-media control system were applied in the study group. After the one year training program, a self-designed survey was used to collect the students' evaluation. A comprehensive test was carried out and the scores of it were compared to the traditional training group. Results Test scores of the study group was significantly higher than the control group's (P<0.01), and the survey results showed that using multi-media control system in the open experimental training program was highly accepted by the nursing students (97.1%). Conclusions Using multi-media control system in the open experimental training program can improve the nursing students' competencies and comprehensive quality. © 2012 Springer-Verlag.
