Description
Emine Sezgunsay and colleagues test ChatGPT-supported teaching for nursing students learning endotracheal suctioning in a 2026 pilot trial. Thirty-two undergraduate nursing students were assigned at random to ChatGPT-integrated teaching or traditional teaching. Knowledge was tested before, right after, and six weeks after the session, with interviews exploring student views.
Immediate scores did not differ between groups, but the ChatGPT group retained more knowledge at six weeks. Students said interactive ChatGPT work encouraged active participation and reinforced learning. The pilot suggests that AI support may help less with first learning than with keeping knowledge over time, though larger trials are needed before schools adopt it widely.
