| Popis: | M.Cur. (Advanced Midwifery and Neonatal Nursing) With the introduction of the four year comprehensive course, the students at a particular college of nursing receive instruction on normal labour at the beginning of their second year. They are then allocated to the maternity wards of a particular hospital for their midwifery nursing science practica. The practical placement of these students to the midwifery clinical area is variable as a few may be allocated to the practice immediately after having received their theoretical instruction, a few two months later and the rest four, six, eight and ten months later. A major problem thus facing midwifery educators at a particular college of nursing, is to select an appropriate method of teaching that would assist the student nurses in acquiring the psychomotor skills that are necessary for the management of the delivery procedure. The goal of this study was to evaluate the competency levels of the second year student nurses, in the application of the psychomotor skills that are necessary for the management of the delivery procedure, after having made use of different teaching strategies, namely: * the traditional teaching method, and * the aforementioned method combined with the simulation teaching method. The hypothesis stated that there would be no difference in the application of the necessary psychomotor skills for the first delivery procedure, between the control and the experimental groups. |
