First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at whether a teaching method called problem-based learning (PBL) helps nursing students improve their critical thinking and decision-making skills. Over 300 students took part in the study at a university in Egypt. The goal was to see if this way of learning helps them remember and use what they learn about caring for mothers and newborns.
