Artificial Intelligence-Based Emergency Triage Education Tool in Enhancing Clinical Critical Thinking and Triage Practice

Instructor-led Artificial Intelligence-Based Emergency Triage Education Tool in Enhancing Clinical Critical Thinking and Triage Practice: Randomized Control Trial

The study aims to develop an artificial intelligence (AI) based emergency triage education tool for providing critical thinking and questioning skills training to nursing students. It also aims to contribute valuable implications by collecting the knowledge, attitudes, and compassion aspects of nursing students toward AI-based education

The objectives of the study:

1. To evaluate the effectiveness of instructor-led and self-play pedagogy approaches in enhancing students' critical thinking by an AI-based emergency triage education tool.
2. To evaluate the effectiveness of instructor-led and self-play pedagogy approaches in enhancing students' triage skill retention by an AI-based emergency triage education tool.
3. To evaluate students' learning motivation, simulation-based experience, and usability towards AI-based technology learning.

Participants will

1. play the education tool in different pedagogy approaches
2. answer the questionnaires and receive a qualitative interview

Inclusion Criteria:

1. Aged 18 or above;
2. Currently studying the NURS 225F of the Bachelor of Nursing (General) at Hong Kong Metropolitan University;
3. Able to use electronic devices to accomplish an online survey and participate in the AI-based emergency triage education tool
