NCT ID NCT07735299

First seen Jul 29, 2026 · Last updated Jul 30, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This trial investigates whether a cooperative learning technique called the Jigsaw method can boost nursing students' knowledge and attitudes about managing pain in children. About 150 third-year nursing students from two Italian universities will be randomly assigned to either Jigsaw-based learning or traditional lectures. Their skills will be measured before, right after, and one month after the training to see if the interactive approach leads to better outcomes.
