Abstract
Background“Smart” technology offers hands-free communication, assessment, and documentation that includes dictation, pictures, and video. Smart wearables offer nursing students and faculty real-world applicability to prepare them for future demands in clinical practice and nursing education. MethodA quantitative study of junior baccalaureate nursing students participated in a pre- and post-survey using QualtricsXM to investigate the perceptions of smart glasses technology as an effective learning tool in simulation. Surveys also measured students’ perceived usage of smart glasses to access patient and family assessment data. ResultsNursing students found the utilization of smart glass wearable technology benefited their learning in the simulation laboratory. Students found by reviewing their own first-person videos helpful to self-reflect on their competency and needs for improvement in clinical practice. ConclusionsIncorporating smart glasses in simulation may enrich learning and performance of nursing students.
