“…Application-based learning media in the form of mobile learning is used as a learning resource (Amirullah & Hardinata, 2017;Sholihin et al, 2020). Successful integration of technology into health care curricula benefits health care students by developing their clinical and professional skills, and enhancing their learning experience (Grimwood & Snell, 2020). Based on the findings presented this reserach, that training materials and learning evaluations are correlated with the iPosyandu application as a learning medium, as shown in Figure 3.…”

Currently, village midwives are experiencing an increased workload because there are more and more health service programs, so they cannot provide optimal sustainable midwifery care. This study analyzes the relationship between iPosyandu application-based training media and training materials for continuing midwifery care and learning evaluation. This type of research is analytical research with a cross-sectional research design. The research subjects were 110 people. Data was collected by providing the village midwife with an online questionnaire (google form). Univariate data were processed and analyzed to determine all research variables' mean and standard deviation values. Bivariate data analysis with Pearson test due to the type of numeric data. The study found no correlation between the components of the training curriculum (including training materials, learning media, and learning evaluation) and continuing midwifery care competencies. However, there is a significant correlation between training materials and learning media. In addition, a significant correlation was found between learning evaluation and learning media. It was concluded that the components of the training curriculum were interrelated so that the iPosyandu application could be used as a training medium for all competencies in training. This research implies that midwives can use the iPosyandu application as a learning medium that makes it easy to access training materials, thereby saving training costs for midwives as training participants and organizers.

“…The presence of technology-based instruction—mainly video demonstrations before the clinical simulation—strongly increased novices’ self-reported CL on the NASA-TLX, while it was very close to being significant for the Paas Scale. In recent years, educational technology has become more accessible and popular in healthcare professions education (Car et al, 2019; Grimwood & Snell, 2020; Kononowicz et al, 2019). Yet, we are not aware of any study that specifically examined the impact of educational technology before or during a clinical simulation on CL.…”

Background Clinical simulations are complex educational interventions characterized by several design features, which have the potential to influence cognitive load, that is, the mental effort required to assimilate new information and learn. This systematic review and meta-analysis explored the associations between simulation design features and cognitive load in novice healthcare professionals. Methods Based on the Joanna Briggs Institute methodology, a search was performed in five databases for quantitative studies in which the cognitive load of novice healthcare professionals was measured during or after a simulation activity. Each clinical simulation was coded to describe its design features. Univariate and multivariate mixed model analyses were performed to explore the associations between simulation design features and cognitive load. Results From 962 unique records, 45 studies were included and 27 provided enough data on subjective cognitive load (i.e., Paas Scale and NASA-Task Load Index scores) to be meta-analyzed. In the multivariate analysis for the NASA-Task Load Index scores, each repetition of a simulation using the same scenario resulted in a linear decrease in cognitive load. In contrast, technology-based instruction before or during a simulation activity was associated with higher cognitive load. In the univariate analyses, other features such as feedback and instructor presence were also statistically associated with cognitive load. Regarding the univariate analyses of the Paas Scale scores, simulator type, briefing, debriefing, and repetitive practice were statistically associated with cognitive load. Conclusion This is the first meta-analysis exploring the relationship between clinical simulation design features and novice healthcare professionals’ cognitive load. Although the findings show that several design features can potentially increase or decrease cognitive load, several gaps and inconsistencies in the current literature make it difficult to appreciate how such reciprocity influences novice healthcare professionals’ learning. These limitations are discussed and avenues for educators and further research are suggested.

“…Technological developments successfully contribute to education and training, midwifery care, and lifelong learning [ 78 ]. The effectiveness of technology integration into healthcare training can improve clinical skills professionally and enhance health workers’ learning experiences [ 79 ]. Previous studies show that innovative on-traditional methods, such as mHealth, have the potential to increase midwives’ knowledge [ 72 , 80 ].…”

Midwives’ competence in providing continuity of care using mobile health (mHealth) applications is limited in developing countries. This study identified and explored midwives’ competency and service needs to develop mHealth in Midwifery Continuity of Care (MCOC) education and training. It used an explanatory sequential mixed method, and was conducted from August to December 2021. A cross-sectional approach was used to find the characteristics and competency scope of 373 midwives in West Java, and continued with a qualitative design through a Focus Group Discussion (FGD) of 13 midwives. Descriptive data analysis (frequency, mean, deviation standard) and qualitative data analysis (coding, sub-themes, and theme) were conducted. In terms of the x midwives who participated in this study, more than half were aged £ 35 years (58.98%), with a working period > 10 years (56.30%), had diploma degrees (71.12%), and used smartphones on average 1–12 h/day (78.28%). Most midwives needed to develop competency in the MCOC scope, including its early detection of the risk factor of complications and treatment management. They were concerned about the purposes, benefits, and design of mHealth. In summary, midwives’ competency indicators for early detection are more needed in MCOC using mHealth. Further research is required to evaluate midwives’ competence in MCOC using mHealth.
