Abstract
Background and importance of the problem: Professional nurse be a health worker who is an important health personnel
in promoting exclusive breastfeeding to be extremely effective. Development of the capacity of professional nurses that should begin with the creation of nursing graduates who have appropriate the capacity of cognitive domain, affective domain and psychomotor domain in promoting and supporting exclusive breastfeeding. The purpose of the research was to investigate whether the Practical Skills Teaching and Learning Management Programs (PSTLMP) in Bachelor of Nursing Students to improve learning of breastfeeding compared with a standard teaching and learning management programs.
Materials and methods: The research was conducted in the 3rd year nursing students, academic year 2022, Bachelor of Nursing Science Program, Faculty of Nursing, Western University, Watcharapol Campus, 80 people from January to May 2023 were Quasi-Experimental assigned to receive the Practical Skills Teaching and Learning Management Programs or PSTLMP (intervention group) or to receive a routine standard Learning Management Programs (control group) with 40 Bachelor of Nursing Science Program in each group. Intra-group comparison was carried out using paired t-test and one-way ANOVA for inter-group comparison. Compare the competency score of cognitive domain, affective domain and psychomotor domain between the intervention group and the control group on pre-test, post-test and after 1 month follow up-test by calculating the test on various groups, and calculated by Chi-square test.
Results: The finding showed the capacity score of cognitive domain, affective domain and psychomotor domain of learning about breastfeeding in the intervention group after and 1 month follow-up after being given the Practical Skills Teaching and Learning Management Programs or PSTLMP were significantly higher than those when compared in before being given the program at the .05 level (P<0.001 total). Additional that the capacity score of cognitive domain, affective domain and psychomotor domain of learning about breastfeeding in the intervention group after being given the program was significantly higher than those when compared with the control group at the .05 level (P<0.041, P<0.044 and P<0.038 respectively). And the capacity score of affective domain and psychomotor domain of learning about breastfeeding in the intervention group in 1 month follow-up after being given the program was significantly higher than those when compared in the control group at the .05 level (P<0.020 and P<0.034 respectively).
Conclusion of the research: The Practical Skills Teaching and Learning Management Programs or PSTLMP significantly improves the capacity score learning of breastfeeding are cognitive domain, affective domain and psychomotor domain with statistical significant at .05 levels.
