Description

An internet-based instructional arrangement in which theoretical subjects were taught "by using digital systems (digital libraries) and virtual animations" and practical procedures were taught with video systems and virtual animations, followed by lab practice with instructor analysis of skill difficulties. It was evaluated against conventional face-to-face teaching and moulage demonstration in a quasi-experimental study of 86 nursing students, with the final theoretical exam and OSCE held constant across groups.
