The nursing curriculum is to be modernized to improve the student’s skills in meeting the recent trends in medical and healthcare fields. The curriculum improvements are based on expert recommendations, authors, and informative data from different web sources. The challenging task is to improve the readability and understandability of the curriculum to real-time standards. Considering the above facts, this article introduces a refined curriculum with Internet information analysis (RC-IIA) method. The proposed method incorporates the distributed Internet, journal, and previous curriculum information within the active nursing syllabus. This prevents repetitions and less-informative content within the active curriculum. Besides, classification learning for knowledge-based representations is used within the curriculum to improve competency. Based on the refined information, a recommendation-based curriculum is preferred for varying information across different standards. The proposed analysis method relies on existing and distributed information across multiple curriculum providers for leveraging the visibility and prolonging the stealth of the nursing curriculum.

“…12,13 AI tools can act as a scaffold within the ZPD, providing students with assistance that is gradually removed as their competence increases. 13 For example, when students use ChatGPT to generate questions, the AI provides support. As students become more adept at formulating questions, they rely less on the AI's suggestions, eventually reaching a point where they can create sophisticated questions independently.…”

“…Furthermore, the collaborative nature of the activities reflects social constructivism, emphasizing the importance of social interactions in cognitive development. 13 Students work in groups, engaging in discourse with peers and educators, negotiating meanings, and arriving at a shared understanding. This collaborative approach is augmented by AI, which provides a platform for such interactions to occur, facilitating a dynamic exchange of ideas and promoting deeper understanding through social engagement.…”

Background: Technological advances have expanded nursing education to include generative artificial intelligence (AI) tools such as ChatGPT. Problem: Generative AI tools challenge academic integrity, pose a challenge to validating information accuracy, and require strategies to ensure the credibility of AI-generated information. Approach: This article presents a dual-purpose approach integrating AI tools into prelicensure nursing education to enhance learning while promoting critical evaluation skills. Constructivist theories and Vygotsky’s Zone of Proximal Development framework support this integration, with AI as a scaffold for developing critical thinking. Outcomes: The approach involves practical activities for students to engage with AI-generated content critically, thereby reinforcing clinical judgment and preparing them for AI-prevalent health care environments. Conclusions: Incorporating AI tools such as ChatGPT into nursing curricula represents a strategic educational advancement, equipping students with essential skills to navigate modern health care.
