Summary

This study tested whether playing an educational board game could improve nurses' knowledge, attitudes, and confidence about dengue compared to a standard lecture. Over 100 nurses from 14 health centers in Indonesia took part, each receiving a single 90-minute session of either the game or a lecture. Researchers measured their learning and satisfaction at multiple points to see which method worked better.
