Kickstart in nursing home —Nursing students experiences of a model for active and collaborative learning in clinical placement

ConclusionsThe model could reduce tension and anxiety while helping the students focus on learning options and use their environment more actively for learning. Working with a learning partner seems to increase student learning through common planning, feedback and reflection. The study emphasises the importance of facilitating active learning through the scaffolding structures and configuration of the students' learning space.Relevance to clinical practiceThis study indicates the potential for introducing active and collaborative pedagogical models in clinical placement. The model can promote nursing homes as a conducive learning arena for nursing students and help prepare students for a future work role in a rapidly changing health care field.Patient or public contributionThe result of the research is shared and discussed with stakeholders prior to finalising the article.
