ABSTRACT: Active Learning Strategies to Enhance Nursing Students’ Knowledge of Pharmacology
This article presents the author’s experience using gaming and social media to enhance undergraduate nursing students’ pharmacology knowledge. Although gaming may help with rote learning, active participation in gaming was not associated with higher exam or final course grades. Active participation in social media, on the other hand, was associated with higher exam and final course grades.
