At the time of the outbreak of the coronavirus pandemic, several measures were in place to limit the spread of the virus, such as lockdown and restriction of social contacts. Many colleges thus had to shift their education from personal to online form overnight. The educational environment itself has a significant influence on students’ learning outcomes, knowledge, and satisfaction. This study aims to validate the tool for assessing the educational environment in the Slovenian nursing student population. To assess the educational environment, we used the DREEM tool distributed among nursing students using an online platform. First, we translated the survey questionnaire from English into Slovenian using the reverse translation technique. We also validated the DREEM survey questionnaire. We performed psychometric testing and content validation. I-CVI and S-CVI are at an acceptable level. A high degree of internal consistency was present, as Cronbach’s alpha was 0.951. The questionnaire was completed by 174 participants, of whom 30 were men and 143 were women. One person did not define gender. The mean age of students was 21.1 years (SD = 3.96). The mean DREEM score was 122.2. The mean grade of student perception of learning was 58.54%, student perception of teachers was 65.68%, student academic self-perception was 61.88%, student perception of the atmosphere was 60.63%, and social self-perception of students was 58.93%. Although coronavirus has affected the educational process, students still perceive the educational environment as positive. Nevertheless, there is still room for improvement in all assessed areas.

Background and objective: Collaboration is an important and necessary skill to function effectively within the practice of nursing and inter-professional teams. The purpose of this pilot study was to examine the impact of collaborative testing on nursing student content retention and student perception of the collaborative testing process.Methods: A convenience sample of nursing students (n = 95) were grouped in random pairs and permitted to collaborate on exam 3 (of 5) in an entry level medical surgical nursing course. Students were surveyed with the 13-item survey, Student Evaluation of Collaborative Testing, after the collaborative exam.Results and conclusions: There was a strong, positive correlation between students’ exam 3 grades and the number of correct responses to exam 3 content items on the final exam, r = .511, p < .001. For every one-point increase on exam 3 grades, the number of correct responses on exam 3 content on the final exam increased by .511. As such, students who scored higher on exam 3 also had more correct responses to exam 3 content on the final exam. There was a strong, positive correlation between students’ exam 3 and final exam scores, r = .536, p < .001. It may (or may not) be the case that students’ who perceived collaborative learning more positively were more impacted by the collaborative learning experience, resulting in higher scores on the final exam.

Objective: This study aimed to examine the nurse-student relationship during clinical learning experiences.Methods: Students at all levels of a Bachelors nursing program completed the Nursing Student Perception of Civil and Uncivil Behaviors tool (NSPCUB) after clinical experiences during each semester over one calendar year at a small Midwestern university. The tool included 12 items, four demographic questions, and two qualitative questions.Results: A total of 302 surveys were returned. The majority of surveys were completed by second semester students on a medical-surgical unit. The majority of students had positive experiences. Night shift nurses had a significantly higher mean on two variables. There was also statistical significance between second and third semester students on two variables. There were no statistical differences between units and hospitals. Student’s comments were mostly positive, though negative experiences still occurred.Conclusions: Nurses can positively impact student’s clinical learning experiences. Students have both positive and negative experiences in the clinical setting. Several positive themes were identified including role modeling, skill acquisition/teaching, communication and critical thinking development. Negative themes also occurred including rudeness, feeling ignored and inappropriate behavior. Further research is recommended.

The sample for this research was selected by random sampling method. Results: The result showed that the average of student's soft skills score in PBL method was 122.63, while student's soft skills score in lecturing method was 116.27. Discussion & Conclusion: There was significant difference of student's soft skills in PBL method and lecturing method (p value = 0.038; α = 0.05). This study recommends nursing program management, faculty of medicine at the University of Syiah Kuala keeps PBL method running and develops other methods which facilitate hard skills and soft skills are development. Keywords: nursing students, soft skill, PBL
