Summary

This study tests whether an online learning method called Watch-Summarize-Question-Ask (WSQA) can improve nursing students' ability to prevent patient falls. Sixty-six nursing students will be randomly assigned to either standard education or the WSQA program, which includes videos, summaries, and group discussions. Researchers will measure changes in knowledge, confidence, and care planning skills related to fall prevention.
