摘要

Nursing students at the University of Calgary - Qatar are nearly all English as second language (ESL) students with Arabic as their first language. During the undergraduate nursing program students are required to work with patients in clinical settings under the supervision of a faculty member. One of the main goals of clinical courses is to provide students with the opportunity to learn in context and 'just-in-time', a much more realistic and memorable learning experience. Learning often requires students to acquire additional information about patients on site. However, most clinical placements in Qatar do not provide students with access to textbooks nor computers and the nature of the settings does not allow them to carry e.g., textbooks with them. The current research was conducted to determine if properly selected smartphone technology and accompanying software would help provide students with information they needed in a just-in-time fashion and if this would have a positive impact on their learning. A selection rubric was developed to ensure the most appropriate smartphone and software was purchased. The smartphones and accompanying software were purchased and deployed to students in two clinical courses. Data was gathered through focus groups at the end of the semester. Both students and faculty commented favourably on their use in clinical practice especially in terms of being able to quickly and immediately access information. Students also identified that while smartphones were appropriate for just-in-time information gathering they were not a replacement for the depth of information available in textbooks.
