Jigsaw learning boosts nursing Students' pressure ulcer Know-How?
NCT ID NCT06899282
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026
Summary
This study tested whether a jigsaw-style group learning method helps nursing students better understand pressure ulcer prevention. Sixty-two senior nursing students were split into two groups: one learned using the jigsaw technique, the other with traditional lectures. Researchers measured their knowledge, attitudes, and confidence before, right after, and six weeks later. The goal is to see if this interactive approach leads to better learning.
