Summary

This randomized controlled study evaluated the effect of NotebookLM-supported instruction on undergraduate nursing students' learning of vital signs. First-year nursing students were randomly assigned to either an intervention group or a control group. Students in the control group received vital signs instruction using the traditional teaching approach included in the existing nursing curriculum. Students in the intervention group received the same course content supported by educational materials created through NotebookLM, including podcasts, flashcards, review questions, and mind maps. The educational use of NotebookLM was evaluated within the PICRAT model, which considers students' engagement with technology and the effect of technology on teaching practices. Academic achievement related to vital signs was assessed immediately after instruction and again six weeks later.

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

NotebookLM-Supported Vital Signs Instruction

Participants received a 20- to 30-minute orientation on the use of NotebookLM one day before the vital signs lesson. They were then provided with access to an instructor-prepared NotebookLM page containing educational materials on vital signs, including an audio podcast, flashcards, a topic review quiz, and a mind map. Students were encouraged to use these materials before and during the lesson. The classroom session was delivered using a NotebookLM-supported interactive teaching approach to promote active student participation. The lesson was delivered by the same instructor who taught the control group.

BEHAVIORAL

Traditional Vital Signs Instruction

Standard curriculum-based instruction on vital signs delivered using traditional teaching methods without NotebookLM-supported materials.
