BackgroundThe Institute of Medicine calls for collaboration and encourages nursing education programs to provide opportunities for students to engage in collaborative efforts with members of the healthcare team to improve the practice environment and patient outcomes. Nurse educators strive to provide meaningful learning experiences that garner competence, decision-making, clinical reasoning, and problem-solving.ObjectiveThe purpose of this study was to examine the effect of collaborative testing on student learning of mental health concepts and to evaluate student perceptions of this learning strategy.MethodsA mixed method research approach was used with students enrolled in a psychiatric mental health class in a baccalaureate nursing program.ResultsThe quantitative research revealed collaborative testing improved student exam scores and the qualitative research revealed the majority of students had a positive perception of collaborative testing.ConclusionsThe research findings support the idea that collaborative testing is an active teaching strategy that fosters higher academic success.Implications for NursingCollaborative testing can introduce the nursing student to the process of teamwork, critical thinking, and problem-solving. The development of these attributes will facilitate the student's ability to work collaboratively as a member of the interprofessional healthcare team.

The purpose of this study was to improve students' problem-solving abilities using the Team Assisted Individualization (TAI) model in students grade IV of Bekasi Jaya II State Elementary School. This study was carried out because of the students' low problem-solving ability in Mathematics.This study employed the Classroom Action Research approach, which was conducted in two cycles. Each cycle has four stages, namely, planning, implementation, assessment, and reflection stage. About 27 students from grade IV has participated in this study. Data collection was carried out through written tests and observation sheets. Data were analyzed with descriptive analysis. The criterion for success in this study is if 80% of students achieve a minimum score of 75.Based on the results, the students' problem-solving ability in cycle I with classical completeness was 59%, and got an average score of 72. In cycle II with 89% classical completeness, and the mean score of students' problem-solving abilities increased to 88. Thus, it can be concluded that the Team Assisted Individualization model can improve the conceptual understanding of grade IV students of Bekasi Jaya II State Elementary School.
