Abstract |
This study utilized the ADDIE which includes the Analysis phase in which the researchers identified and analyzed the gaps and areas to improve in the clinical classroom by integrating personal experience and reading of literature as well as existing studies. In the Design phase, the researchers produced the low-fidelity prototype of the application after discussions and planning with the developer based on the proposed hardware and software requirements and a high-fidelity profile prototype followed reviewing and analyzing and then the application was developed. Implementation and Evaluation then followed by determining the usability and the acceptability. The usability questionnaire was derived from the System Usability Scale of Jakob Nielsen, was revised and tested for reliability using Cronbach's Alpha (0.985). The acceptability questionnaire was derived from the Bakuna App Version 2.0 and was revised and tested for reliability using Cronbach's Alpha (0.950). With all the results, the researchers can conclude that the developed application is both acceptable and usable to both nurse educators and student nurses and is therefore an effective tool in improving and enhancing the delivery and quality of Nursing Education and instruction in the clinical classroom. |
