Objective To explore the advantages of combining small private online courses(SPOC)with artificial intelligence(AI)in radiology nursing teaching,in order to compensate for the shortcomings of traditional teaching models.Methods Eighty nursing students interning in the radiology department were randomly selected as research subjects and divided into an experimental group(SPOC+flipped classroom+AI-assisted teaching mode)and a control group(traditional teaching mode),with 40 students in each group.The effectiveness of the SPOC+flipped classroom+AI-assisted teaching mode was evaluated by comparing theoretical tests,nursing skills tests,self-learning ability assessments,and satisfaction with teaching modes between the two groups.Results The average scores of chapter tests,month-end assessments and graduation examinations in the experimental group were higher than those in the control group(P<0.001);The average scores of indwelling needle embedding,contrast agent injection,and contrast agent allergy treatment tests in the experimental group were higher than those in the control group(P<0.001);The online learning time,homework completion rate,and online test scores of the experimental group were higher than those in the control group(P<0.001);The overall satisfaction with the teaching mode was higher in the experimental group than in the control group,with statistically significant differences(P<0.001).Conclusion The SPOC+flipped classroom+AI-assisted teaching model possesses important advantages in the instruction of nursing the department of radiology,and provides strong support for the innovation and development of nursing education in the field.
