Digital teaching and learning media for nursing and healthcare courses in Germany: Protocol for an scoping review
ABSTRACT
Background:
In Germany, the digital transformation and legal regulations are leading to the need of integrating digital technologies into the nursing profession. In addition, to nursing practice, they are also being incorporated into nursing training. However, there is no standardized framework for the use of digital teaching and learning media in nursing education.
Objective:
The general aim of this study is to provide an overview of the use of digital teaching and learning formats in nursing and healthcare education in Germany.
Methods:
The study is planned as a scoping review. The reporting of the study is based on the PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses) 2020 guidelines. The sources of information for the review include six bibliographic databases (MEDLINE via PubMed, Cochrane Library, Web of Science Core Collection, ERIC, PROSPERO and PsycINFO). The search results will be presented in accordance with the PRISMA 2020 guidelines. The eligibility of studies is based on the population, concept, and context criteria (PCC criteria): (1) learners of nursing and healthcare professions, (2) digital teaching and learning formats, (3) forms of implementation in Germany since 2007.
Results:
The literature search is planned for June 2024. The selection of titles, the coding of the data and the data analysis are expected to be completed by August 2024.
Conclusions:
In Germany, there is a growing drive to integrate digital teaching and learning formats into nursing and healthcare education. Our scoping review will provide an overview of applications of digital teaching and learning media in the education of nursing and healthcare professions in Germany. In this way, the scoping review provides relevant impulses for fields of application and design aspects of digital teaching and learning media for nursing and healthcare education in Germany. Clinical Trial: not applicable
