Could Team-Based learning make better nurses?
NCT ID NCT07444229
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study looks at whether adding Team-Based Learning to clinical simulation helps nursing students learn better than simulation alone. About 150 third-year nursing students will be randomly assigned to either the new method or standard teaching. Their knowledge and skills will be tested right after and again at 3 and 6 months to see if they remember more.
