“…reported in their study that the awareness and practice of emergency nurses about triage need to attention more. [ 4 ] The results of a study by Mirhaghi and Roudbari also point in the same direction, such that in this study, too, the knowledge and practice of the nurses about triage is estimated to be poor in Zahedan University of Medical Sciences. [ 5 ] These studies suggest that triage is run in hospitals while enough knowledge is not provided to nurses about it, and it is the responsibility of nursing teachers to teach effectively and efficiently to improve knowledge and even decision-making skill in nurses as a member of health-care system.…”

BACKGROUND:Mobile health has the potential to revolutionize the role of educators by empowering nurses to take more responsibility for their own learning. Hence, this study was designed to examine the effect of mobile health method to emergency nurses’ knowledge about Emergency Severity Index triage.MATERIALS AND METHODS:A two groups’ pool blind quasi-experimental study was performed on emergency department nurses working in hospitals affiliated with Isfahan University of Medical Sciences. The study was conducted from September to November 2014. Sample size was calculated as 35 participants in each group (a total of seventy participants). Participants were divided into two groups of mobile health and workshop, randomly. Participants’ knowledge score was collected according to researcher-made questionnaire with twenty questions. SPSS version 11.5 was used to conduct statistical tests such as independent t-test and paired t-test for analyzing the data with the significant level <0.05.RESULTS:The results show that there was not any significant difference between the knowledge scores of mobile health and workshop group before intervention, but there was a significant difference after 2-week intervention (P = 0.012).CONCLUSION:The electronic program was an attractive education method for emergency nurses because in these method educators by empowering nurses to take more responsibility for their own learning. Hence, it is suggested that mobile health is used by authorities along with routine training, due to its less cost and spending less time.

“…Given this situation, it is considered necessary to apply active and innovative teaching methods in the field of Higher Education, seeking to promote a change in the roles of the agents participating in the training process, making the student the center of his or her own learning and the teacher the guide of the entire process [44][45][46][47][48].…”

“…Thus, this study proposes ensuring the continuity of other studies which are already developed, and where the use of role-playing and educational video is applied [44][45][46][47][48]. In addition, in order to verify its effectiveness, it has been contrasted with the traditional expository teaching method, in which the teacher is a mere reproducer of theoretical contents, and in which students develop the activities or actions proposed during the educational act [49].…”

Information and communication technologies (ICTs) have led to the emergence of a variety of active and innovative teaching methods. This is the case in role-playing, which consists of simulating a real-life situation, in this case the school context, in which the student takes on a certain role and interacts with other students in a fictitious situation. Framed in this way, the present study aims to show if the application of the role-playing method promotes the improvement of attitude variables and practical skills. To this end, we advocated the use of a quasi-experimental methodology, with a control and experimental group and the application of a post-test. The sample is composed of 138 students from the Master of Teachers of Compulsory Secondary Education in Ceuta (Spain). The results showed that the students positively valued the application of the method, obtaining better scores in the set of variables studied, especially in motivation, creativity and collaboration. Therefore, it continues to be observed that the application of innovative methodologies through technology promotes the increase of multiple skills in the student body. This study aimed to prove that the use of active methods provides an increase in students’ skills, and that, therefore, we must bet on the use of sustainable pedagogies in order to promote a real innovation in the classrooms.

Introduction Triage is the process of determining the priority of patients’ treatments based on the severity of their conditions. The aim of the present study was to survey the effect of triage video podcasting on the knowledge and performance of pre-hospital students. Methods Sixty pre-hospital students were randomly divided into two groups of a 30-subject control group and a 30-subject intervention group. A pre-test was administered among all students. Afterwards, for the first group, triage education was offered through lectures using PowerPoint, while for the second group, audio and video podcasts tailored for this training program were employed. Right after the training as well as one month later, post-tests were run for both groups, and the results were analysed using an independent t -test and covariance. Results No significant difference was observed between the effects of both types of education on knowledge and performance, either immediately, or one month after training. Discussion We suggest that video podcasts are ready to replace traditional teaching methods in triage.
