Virtual reality with artificial intelligence-led scenarios in nursing education: a project evaluation.

Aim: To provide insights into the optimal use of virtual reality (VR) in nursing education by evaluating pre-registration nursing students' experiences in conducting holistic patient assessments while interacting with artificial intelligence (AI)-led patients. Specifically, this project evaluation compares the use of two different VR scenarios, one employing a menu-based interface and another using AI voice-controlled technology.

Methods: Eleven pre-registration adult nursing students from two UK universities were selected through purposeful sampling to participate in the two VR simulations.
