The Impact of Virtual Laboratories on Student Clinical Education Preparedness: A Mixed-Method Analysis

CONCLUSION: Results indicate no statistically significant difference for virtual versus in-person laboratory and no difference compared with the 2019 cohort. Virtual instruction effectively prepared students for their clinical experiences across all settings. Although an in-person laboratory experience may be preferred, it is possible to deliver effective experiences in a virtual setting without compromising student performance. Further research is needed to confirm findings.PMID:38478822 | DOI:10.1097/JTE.0000000000000270
