For the Love of the Game: Game- Versus Lecture-Based Learning With Generation Z Patients

Abstract

The current study evaluated adolescent patients' enjoyment of and knowledge gained from game-based learning compared with an interactive lecture format on the topic of mood disorders. It was hypothesized that game-based learning would be statistically more effective than a lecture in knowledge acquisition and satisfaction scores. A pre-post design was implemented in which a convenience sample of 160 adolescent patients were randomized to either a lecture (n = 80) or game-based (n = 80) group. Both groups completed a pretest/posttest and satisfaction survey. Results showed that both groups had significant improvement in knowledge from pretest compared to posttest. Game-based learning was statistically more effective than the interactive lecture in knowledge achievement and satisfaction scores. This finding supports the contention that game-based learning is an active technique that may be used with patient education.

To meet the learning styles of Generation Z, organizations need to adapt to technology, provide hands-on experience, offer self-learning courses, and be comfortable with this tech-savvy and on the go group.…”

Pediatric nursing education: Trends, challenges and aspirations

“…Another challenge for pediatric nursing educators, influencers and leaders is to craft messaging and outreach that attracts and motivates new generations of young adults and nursing students into pediatric nursing. Generation Z and the Alpha Generation have been raised in worlds very different from previous generations (Adamson et al, 2018;Betz, 2019;Pew Research Center, 2018). These generations have been raised within the imminent and pervasive environment of technology.…”
