Quasi-experiment shows increased academic performance in first-year nursing students using digital flashcards, suggesting effective learning strategies.
Key Points
Card users significantly outperformed non-users on the final exam, indicating effective use of digital flashcards for learning.
Participants using the intervention were nearly three times more likely to pass, highlighting the impact of spaced retrieval practice.
Results controlled for factors like prior academic performance and study time, reinforcing the significance of flashcard use.
This approach suggests a cost-effective method to improve learning outcomes in educational settings.
