Abstract

Background
: In the case of simulation practice, if the visual information obtained through observation is described in text along with video observation learning, students will be able to reinforce their memory of the acquired content, promote the learning process, and further enhance nursing performance skills. The purpose of this study was to confirm the effectiveness of communication training through observational learning and recording of simulation practice videos and to provide basic data for developing strategies to improve learning effects.
Methods
: We conducted a simulation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease patient nursing with fourth-year students in the department of nursing at University B in A City. The described communication contents while watching a video of a colleague’s team’s implementation in real time, were analyzed by content analysis method.
Results
: In this study, nursing students have an opportunity to think critically by recording their judgments on effective or ineffective situations in therapeutic communication with patients, information transfer, and cooperative communication between professionals and used it for reflection and application.
Conclusion
: Creating a structured observation sheet while observing the simulation situation of a peer team in real time is a way to reinforce the memory of the learned content by allowing more focus on observational learning and elaborate processing of visual information through recording.
