Abstract

This study investigated the effect of interactive learning tools—specifically simulation-based training, virtual clinical modules, and mobile learning applications—on the perceived clinical competence of Level 3 nursing students in a selected College of Nursing in Cavite, Philippines. A quantitative pretest–posttest research design was employed, involving 100 nursing students. Data were collected using a self-developed structured questionnaire that assessed respondents’ demographic profile, level of exposure to interactive tools, and perceived clinical competence across four domains of the Perceived Clinical Competence Scale (PCCS): clinical knowledge, psychomotor skills, clinical reasoning and judgment, and confidence/self-efficacy. Additionally, usability, learning process, and perceived barriers and support were evaluated.

Keywords: interactive learning tools; nursing students; perceived clinical competence; simulation-based learning
