Using Qualtrics to Collect Data Janet Monagle PhD, RN, CNE
Virtual simulation vs. high fidelity simulation: How do confidence and learning outcomes compare?
Research Questions 1. Does virtual simulation promote learning and enhance confidence when compared high fidelity simulation method (as measured by the SET-M)? 2. Is there equivalent knowledge acquisition using vSim and HPS methods ?
Method & Sample A convenience sample of third year nursing students were assigned to participate in simulation as part of course requirements. All students in the sample participated in one vSim and one HPS experience. Simulation Effectiveness Toll- Modified (SET-M) used to measure confidence and learning (Data collected via QUATRICS) A faculty made quiz used to measure knowledge acquisition. (Data collected via Blackboard) Over70 pre-licensure students from two cohorts: direct entry students and traditional undergraduate students.
Instruments Simulation Evaluation Tool- Modified(SET-M) Subscales: Prebrief with 2 items was not included Learning 6 items Cronbach's alpha= .852 Confidence- 6 items Cronbach's alpha= .913 Debrief-5 items Cronbach's alpha= .908 10 question faculty made quiz given after each simulation via Blackboard – reviewed by two expert faculty
The Evolution of using Qualtrics
Pilot- Two Surveys
Pilot- Branching Survey
Sending Survey Anonymous Link Unable to do Paired T- tests Many students ignored it
Sending Survey E-mail sent to students Student e-mails copy and pasted from Blackboard More student participation
Final Product
Conclusion Data easily exported from Qualtrics and imported to SPSS for analysis.
