Summary

This study compares two teaching methods for nursing students learning how to give a safe injection in the hip area. About 120 first-year nursing students will be randomly assigned to learn using either the traditional Halsted method or the structured Peyton method. The goal is to see which approach improves students' knowledge, skills, and ability to learn on their own.
