1. A nursing educator is planning to use a flipped

classroom approach for teaching a unit on wound care.

What is the main advantage of this method over the

traditional lecture method?

a) It allows the students to apply their knowledge in a

simulated setting.

b) It reduces the cognitive load on the students by

providing them with pre-recorded lectures.

c) It increases the students' engagement and motivation by

giving them more autonomy and responsibility.

d) *It enhances the students' critical thinking and problemsolving skills by exposing them to real-life scenarios.*

Rationale: The flipped classroom approach involves

assigning pre-class activities such as watching videos,

reading articles, or completing quizzes, and using the class

time for active learning such as case studies, discussions, or

simulations. This method helps the students to develop

higher-order cognitive skills such as analysis, synthesis,

and evaluation, which are essential for nursing practice.

2. A nursing educator is using a team-based learning (TBL)

strategy for teaching a unit on infection control. The

educator divides the class into small groups and assigns

them a case study on a patient with a hospital-acquired

infection. The groups are required to answer a series of

questions based on the case study and present their answers

to the class. What is the main purpose of this strategy?

a) To assess the students' individual and group readiness
