| Popis: | The purpose of this observational study was to describe the collaboration between first-year nursing students using peer learning during their first clinical practice education. In earlier, predominantly interview studies, peer learning has been described as a model with several positive outcomes. However, no studies on how students act in collaboration in a real-life context have been found. The present study observed sixteen arbitrarily paired nursing students (eight pairs) on three to five occasions per pair, in total 164 h from September 2015 to March 2016. Repeated unstructured observations including informal conversations were used. Using qualitative content analysis, one theme ‘Involuntary collaboration leads to growth in different competencies’ emerged and three categories ‘Practising nursing skills and abilities when working together’, ‘Establishing knowledge by helping each other to understand’ and ‘Sharing thoughts, feelings, and knowledge and put them into words’. In conclusion, nursing students using peer learning were observed practising several competencies, some of them not so easily elicited according to earlier research as organization, nursing leadership, teaching, and supervision. |
