NCT ID NCT07531355
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at whether a blockchain-powered electronic portfolio helps nursing students track their skills and keep learning. 72 third-year nursing students used either a blockchain e-portfolio or a standard one during their clinical rotation. Researchers measured their clinical skills, learning habits, and portfolio quality to see if the blockchain system offered any advantage.
