Implementing Augmented Reality through Assemblr Edu to Improve Skill of Intravenous Medication among Nurse Students in Yogyakarta Nursing College

Abstract

In nursing, education technology changes constantly. Over the last 50 years, computer-based simulations, virtual patients, and interactive online courses have evolved in health professions education. Despite several learning tools, none have enhanced nursing abilities. This study will determine whether Assemblr Edu enhances nursing students' intravenous administration. This research used controls and interventions in a quasi-experimental design. The intervention group received assembly instruction for one month, whereas the control group learned manual drug delivery. The study involved 116 second-semester nursing students. SPSS 26 using a paired t-test assessed the study's results and calculated the sig value. Assemblr Edu enhances nursing students' drug administration skills more than the guidebook (0.000). Assemblr edu helps nursing students administer intravenous drugs. This research may assist nursing educators and policymakers create AR-based learning media to enhance nursing abilities across institutions.
