Description
Background: The first step in effectively applying novel teaching methods is
identifying barriers and challenges to implementing appropriate interventions. A
literature review revealed no studies exploring nursing instructors’ viewpoints on
the reasons for not using novel teaching methods.
Purpose: The present study aimed to explore the challenges and executive barriers
against using novel approaches in instructing nursing students from the perspective
of nursing instructors.
Methods: In this descriptive-analytical study, 163 nursing instructors from three
nursing schools in Fars Province, Southwest Iran, were selected using convenience
sampling. A researcher-developed questionnaire comprising 17 items scored on a
five-point Likert scale was utilized to collect data. These items were categorized into
three domains: challenges related to students (n=4), instructors (n=8), and
structural-managerial aspects (n=5). The questionnaire’s reliability coefficient was
found to be 0.89 using the test-retest method. The Kolmogorov–Smirnov test was
used to test the normality of variables and the independent t-test was employed to
examine the relationship between genders and educational degrees across all three
domains.
Results: The mean scores for challenges and barriers related to the instructors,
students, and structural-managerial aspects were 33.24(7.16), 16.31(3.93), and
22.14(3.64), respectively. A significant relationship between gender and educational
degree was observed across all three domains (p<0.001).
Conclusion: The barriers and challenges against using novel teaching methods for
nursing students from the perspective of nursing instructors included challenges
related to instructors, students, and structural-managerial aspects. The support and
encouragement of educational institution managers in executing these methods
could help promote the utilization of these techniques and improve the quality of
education.
