Gamification Versus E-Learning for Electrocardiogram Education

11 juni 2026 uppdaterad av: Hsiao-Yen Hsieh, DNP, RN, APN, Taiwan Municipal An-Nan Hospital-China Medical University

Comparing the Effectiveness of Gamification Educational Method and E-learning Educational Method

This randomized controlled study aims to compare the effectiveness of a gamification educational method and an e-learning educational method for electrocardiogram (ECG) education. Nursing students and novice nurses are randomly assigned to either a gamified learning group or an e-learning group. The study evaluates whether the gamification approach improves ECG knowledge, learning confidence, and learning satisfaction compared with conventional e-learning instruction.

Studieöversikt

Detaljerad beskrivning

Electrocardiogram (ECG) interpretation is an essential competency for nursing students and novice nurses. Traditional educational approaches, including lecture-based and self-directed e-learning methods, may not fully engage learners or promote active participation. Gamification has emerged as an innovative educational strategy that incorporates game elements into learning activities to enhance motivation, engagement, and knowledge acquisition.

This randomized controlled study was conducted to compare the effectiveness of a gamification educational method with a conventional e-learning educational method for ECG education. Participants were assigned to either a gamification group or an e-learning group. The gamification intervention incorporated interactive learning activities designed to facilitate active participation and reinforce ECG learning concepts, whereas the comparison group received self-directed e-learning instruction.

The study was designed to evaluate whether gamification could improve learning outcomes and provide evidence for the application of innovative educational strategies in nursing education and clinical training programs.

Tidsram
Learning Confidence Scale Score
Tidsram: Baseline and immediately after completion of the educational intervention
The Learning Confidence Score Scale consists of 5 questions, designed to measure a participant's confidence in interpreting ECGs and applying them clinically after completing an ECG course. A 0-100mm line is divided into 100 divisions, marked with a scale from 1 to 100, where 0 represents no confidence and 100 represents full confidence. The test subject quantifies their self-perceived visual score from 0 to 100.
Baseline and immediately after completion of the educational intervention
Learning Satisfaction Questionnaire Score
Tidsram: Immediately after completion of the educational intervention
This questionnaire includes key evaluation points for teaching effectiveness, such as lesson planning, teaching material presentation, teaching strategies, teaching assessment, and teaching atmosphere. It comprises 13 questions and uses a Likert scale, with 1 point for "very dissatisfied" and 5 points for "very satisfied." The total score ranges from 13 to 65 points, with higher scores indicating higher course satisfaction.
Immediately after completion of the educational intervention
