Use of Expert Modeling Videos in Undergraduate Nursing Education: A Systematic Review

Abstract

Background: Novice graduate nurses are failing to demonstrate competent patient care in today's complex health care environment. Therefore, nurse educators have begun to critically explore educational methods, through the use of technology, that may affect student learning and clinical competency. Expert modeling videos is one strategy that allows students to observe expert behavior prior to practice and build exemplary care. Method: This review followed the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines for conducting a systematic review. Inclusion criteria for articles were: (1) experimental and nonexperimental, (2) peer reviewed, (3) primary research, (4), published in English, and (5) written through January 2021. Results: Fifteen studies were identified that met all of the inclusion criteria. Conclusion: Expert modeling videos have become an attractive educational strategy to promote learning in undergraduate nursing students. Future studies should focus on the use of these videos as a pedagogical strategy to transform learning in nursing education. [ J Nurs Educ . 2023;62(2):89–96.]
