Abstract:
Objective:To explore the experiences of nursing undergraduates with the blended teaching model in midwifery courses.Methods:This qualitative study employed purposive sampling to select 17 nursing undergraduates from the 2021 cohort who participated in the "Midwifery Theory and Skills 2" course in December 2023. Face-to-face semi-structured interviews were conducted, and the data were analyzed using Colaizzi's seven-step method.Results:Three main themes and eight subthemes were identified. First, the blended teaching model enhanced professional knowledge and skills in midwifery: online resources expanded professional knowledge; online demonstration videos improved operational skills; offline group collaboration strengthened communication skills. Second, it developed professional awareness and emotions in midwifery: systematic course learning enhanced professional identity; offline role-playing cultivated emotional perception; clinical experience sharing by teachers fostered a sense of responsibility in midwifery. Third, it optimized blended teaching resources: the user experience on online platforms was improved, and offline classroom settings were better designed.Conclusions:The blended teaching model aids in enhancing students' comprehensive knowledge and skills in midwifery and fosters professional emotions related to the field. It is recommended to further optimize blended teaching resources to improve the effectiveness of this teaching model in midwifery courses.
