BACKGROUND: Undergraduate #nursing programs continuously
strive to improve student learning outcomes within the simulation lab
experience. As a result, simulation labs are evaluating computer-based
simulation programs to engage the millennial student learner.
OBJECTIVE: Examine undergraduate #nursing student
perceptions and experiences when given a computer-based simulation program as a
preparation prior to their simulated lab experience.
METHODS: A mixed method strategy was used to evaluate the
data. Eighty-two senior undergraduate #nursing students voluntarily
participated in the study and completed the preparation program prior to the
students' simulated lab experience. Measures included a retrospective/pretest
survey of past simulated experience and posttest survey with focus groups,
after the first and last simulation debriefing of the semester. Quantitative
and qualitative data were collected and evaluated as separate perspectives and
then merged
