Introduction: Nursing education in Europe is undergoing the development toward greater comparability under the Bologna process. Based on our mutual experiences from teaching in Slovenia and Sweden, the students' perspectives on knowledge and nursing practice became an issue. The aim was to explore Slovenian and Swedish undergraduate nursing students' perceptions of knowledge needed for future practice. Methods: A qualitative study design was applied. A questionnaire with open ended questions was used to collect opinions of 174 nursing students from the University of Ljubljana, Slovenia, and 109 nursing students from the University of Umea, Sweden. Textual data were analysed using qualitative content analysis. Results: Four subcategories were identified, related to the content of knowledge: knowledge about 'bodies and diseases', about 'people and communication'; and to its purpose: 'to do nursing' and 'to be a nurse'. The main theme, 'integration', indicated the students' awareness of the complexity of their future work and the need for a wide integrated knowledge. Discussion and conclusion: There were more similarities than differences between the Slovenian and Swedish students included in the study. The students were aware of the complex responsibilities and expressed the need for integrating various competences. Interprofessional education should become a constitutive part of nursing education programmes.

Cooperative learning is an approach to the aim of student-centered activities towards the attainment of the outcomes-based environment as required by accrediting and certifying bodies and agencies of higher education. Cooperative learning most often involves small groups of students who contribute to each other's learning. It is one of the innovative teaching strategies can be incorporated in the nursing curriculum for the better results and it is a great tool that can be used to enhance and promote higher student achievement.Therefore, a variety of teaching strategies have been designed to be used in teaching, ranging from teacher-centered strategies to more student-centered ones.Hence, the present study aims to assess the effect of cooperative learning strategy on undergraduate nursing students enrolled in nursing administration course at Faculty of Nursing, King Khalid University, Saudi Arabia. A one-group before–after quasi-experimental design was used. The study was conducted at Faculty of Nursing at King Khalid University, Saudi Arabia.

While there was no a significant difference was observed between the pre-test and post-test mean scores for the surface approach to learning. It was concluded that  cooperative learning as a method and philosophy is an effective approach to fostering deeper approach to learning and improving communication skills of nursing students especially in interactive skills, team work, and their leadership abilities among nursing students.

BackgroundTraditional models of clinical nursing education do not deliver the most effective learning experiences to undergraduate nursing students. An innovative way to clinically prepare nursing students is the use of dedicated education units (DEUs). This model utilizes staff nurses to provide supervision and hands-on teaching to students.ObjectiveThe purpose of this project was to evaluate an evidence-based change from a traditional model of clinical instruction to a DEU.MethodsDEUs were implemented on three adult medical–surgical units. Two unpaired identical pre-DEU and post-DEU questionnaires were used to evaluate the practice change in both nursing students and staff nurse mentors.ResultsA total of 41 students and 22 nurses participated in the project. Students reported feeling comfortable, engaged, and satisfied in their clinical experiences on the DEU. Nurses' responses revealed the DEU to be a rewarding experience and found satisfaction in their role.ConclusionsThe paradigm shift from traditional to DEU models has enhanced the quality of learning experiences for students and improved the professional environment for nurses at large academic medical institutions located in central Ohio.Implications for NursingImplications for future inquiry include standardizing educational training/orientation programs for DEU staff nurse mentors.
