Abstract

Peer-assisted learning an approach that can provide positive benefits to students. A standardized patient simulation using first semester and second semester junior nursing students was developed. The students were surveyed about their feelings about collaborative learning immediately after the simulation and six weeks later (pre-test n=70, post-test n=56).
