Background: The digital world is rapidly changing, and so do the required digital skills. As physical devices and software are adapted to meet new possibilities and demands, individuals’ skills must adapt to technological advancement. Digital literacy is increasingly used in the public discourse, becoming a core requirement of students, academics, patients and healthcare professionals. Assessing nursing students’ digital literacy at the entry-level is vital to ascertain their abilities to use digital technologies. This study aimed to assess basic digital literacy among first-year nursing students at a selected university in South Africa.Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted from 1st March 2019 to 31st May 2019 at a university in South Africa. The population consisted of 82 nursing students from the first-year students in the 4-year nursing programme. The convenience sampling technique was used to determine the participants of this study, and 76 respondents completed a structured questionnaire. Data were analysed descriptively using the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS®) software (version 25) from the International Business Machines Corporation (IBM®). A reliability test of the instrument was conducted, and Cronbach Alpha was 0.85.Results: The students’ digital literacy included: (i) basic computer skills — performing basic computer operations, MS Word and PowerPoint; (ii) internet skills — using e-mail, Moodle®, social media platforms, accessibility to the internet; and internet searches (iii) digital device usage — desktop, laptops, tablets and smartphones. Overall, the mean for internet skills was 3.61 (SD = ±0.62), 3.11 (SD = ±0.85) for computer skills, and 3.00 (SD = ±0.47) for digital device usage. Computer skills was positively correlated with internet skills (r = 0.278, p = .012) and computer skills corrected with digital device usage (r = 0.384, p < .001). The overall score for internet skills was higher in the female group than in males, with the mean of 4.00 (SD = ±0.62) and 3.61 (SD = ±0.54), respectively (t74 = -0.405, p = .019). Furthermore, the overall score for digital device usage was higher in the age group of 20 years and above with a mean of 3.19 (SD = ±0.38) than in the age group under 20 with a mean of 2.90 (SD = ±0.48), and those differences were statistically significant (t74 = -2.420, p = .018).Conclusions: An adequate digital literacy at the entry-level of the nursing programme is a foundation and a critical factor to academic success and future use of technology in nursing education and practice. Having adequate digital literacy among nursing students would positively impact their ability to perform electronic documentation, communicate and collaborate, and search for information to support evidence-based practice.

“…In nursing education, discerning students' learning styles is of paramount importance to developing effective educational programs and promoting student success. Learning styles encompass the preferred methods and approaches that individuals employ to grasp, process, and retain information [1], [2], [3], [4], [5], [6]. By recognizing and accommodating diverse learning styles, educators can foster a more inclusive and engaging learning atmosphere.…”

In nursing education, recognizing and accommodating diverse learning styles is imperative for the development of effective educational programs and the success of nursing students. This article addresses the crucial challenge of classifying the learning styles of nursing students in Morocco, where contextual studies are limited. To address this research gap, a contextual approach is proposed, aiming to develop a predictive model of the most appropriate learning approach (observational, experiential, reflective and active) for each nursing student in Morocco. This model incorporates a comprehensive set of variables such as age, gender, education, work experience, preferred learning strategies, engagement in social activities, attitudes toward failure, and self-assessment preferences. We used four multivariate machine learning algorithms, namely SVM, Tree, Neural Network, and Naive Bayes, to determine the most reliable and effective classifiers. The results show that neural network and decision tree classifiers are particularly powerful in predicting the most suitable learning approach for each nursing student. This research endeavors to enhance the success of nursing students and raise the overall quality of healthcare delivery in the country by tailoring educational programs to match individual learning styles.

“…It is known that models developed by education are mostly used to show the level of questions in measurement tools used for students' biological local studies (Hack-Polay et al, 2022). It is stated that biological local studies can be used as a tool to determine the appropriateness of educational objectives, activities and evaluation in a unit, course or curriculum (Gandolfi, 2021).…”

The situation is taken as the basis of the research. It is seen that the biological local study is aimed and designed on the students' application of development technology. The study was designed in the fall term of 2022–2023 and was prepared with 148 participants. The participant groups that made up the study were given training on the problem situation of the research. The main purpose is to help participants develop ‘Technology’ ‘Biological local’ topics and to further their education. Each data and value obtained according to the training of the study was made by frequency analysis, t-test, using the utility program, and the results were written into the research in the presence of tables. As a result of the research, it was concluded that the participant groups easily used development technologies in biological local studies and the application that came with this idea was formed.
