Study Overview
Brief Summary
Today, students are tech-savvy. Students are becoming an active learner, and more interested in activity curriculum. Agile method is an adoptive, iterative, incremental, and people oriented. Core values of agile are collaboration, team work, and self-learning, and communication, reflection as metacognitive ability, interpersonal relationships, and adaptation to change. Nursing students those who are undergoing agile training will have improved in their metacognitive ability, teamwork and clinical performances (when compared to before and also to college with nursing students not receiving such intervention).
The agile training programme would be an intervention package to educate the nursing students on basic neonatology for 21 days. The topics are neonatal care, new-born examination, new-born feeding, new-born immunization and neonatal resuscitation. Basic knowledge and skills of above-mentioned topics will be assessed through OSCE (objective structured clinical examination) as a baseline and soon after the intervention post-test 1 and followed by post 2 will be conducted with the interval of 7 days. The control arm will not receive the intervention up to post-test 2 in order to check the efficacy of the methodology. Due to ethical consideration the control group will be taught about the agile methodology for selected topics with the duration of 10 days (sensitization with training)
