Gamification in nursing jurisprudence
Abstract
A Licensed Practical Nurses (LPNs) understanding of regulation and standards of practice as it informs their practice, is vital to assuring public safety. The College of Licensed Practical Nurses of British Columbia (CLPNBC), along with other nursing regulatory bodies were tasked by their relative governments to design a jurisprudence education program as part of a quality assurance initiative. The CLPNBC jurisprudence pilot program used gamified learning to teach LPNs about jurisprudence and potentially influence change in their attitude and behaviors. To explore previous research and guide this research, the theoretical frameworks of gamification in learning and engagement in gamification were used. Through Evaluation Research, the Jurisprudence Pilot Project (JPP) was analyzed to determine whether LPNs identified any influence to change their attitudes and behaviours regarding how jurisprudence informs their practice. The use of gamified education is a new concept for nursing regulators in Canada, and this research draws conclusions and provides a set of recommendations for moving forward regarding engagement in the gamified education and the ability to change attitudes and behaviours related to jurisprudence education.
