Constructing learning confidence through jigsaw, concept maps and group cooperative learning: A qualitative study.
Nurse Educ Pract
December 2024
New Taipei Municipal TuCheng Hospital, Chang Gung Medical Foundation, Taiwan. Electronic address:
Aim: This study aimed to develop students' learning confidence by increasing their motivation and satisfaction.
Background: Nursing students with limited healthcare work experience often have difficulty fully understanding and sympathizing with patients' medical concerns. They also worry about their theoretical knowledge diminishing with time.
RSV explorations: using a case series focused on a single microbe to connect concepts across an undergraduate microbiology course.

Article Synopsis
- - The ASM Curriculum Guidelines emphasize the importance of active learning in microbiology courses, suggesting that this approach promotes student participation and success, despite the temptation of resorting to traditional lectures in content-heavy courses.
- - A case series focusing on respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) was developed to boost student engagement by connecting various microbiology concepts through different learning objectives, utilizing methods like case-based learning and real-world data analysis.
- - Student feedback has shown that they prefer these interactive activities over typical lectures, as the case series helps them better understand and relate key microbiological concepts, fostering higher-order thinking and real-world application.
Response to: Reflections on 'Have we lost sleep?'.

I would like to thank Professor Ekirch for his reflections on 'Have we lost sleep?', which contain several points that I have already responded to within the paper following his peer review of my original submission to in 2023 (Professor Ekirch having voluntarily identified himself as a reviewer in a normally double-blind process). I acknowledge that the focus of my paper was on Ekirch's original work from 2001; if I did not engage as he would have wished with his subsequent publications, this was simply because I do not perceive the same substantial developments in his thinking and research on the subject that he does. Indeed, the present critique by Ekirch amounts essentially to more of the same: a long list of references and quotes but little detailed discussion of any individual source.

University of New Haven, West Haven, Connecticut, USA.
In this article, we describe curricular materials developed to engage undergraduate students in evolutionary thinking around antibiotic resistance using the MEGA-plate experiment (Microbial Evolution and Growth Arena). This elegant and visual experiment, developed by the Kishony Lab, shows the development of antibiotic resistance on the timescale of hours and days. It not only provides important biological insights but also captures students' attention, making it a very useful tool for education.

Department of Pediatric and Preventive Dentistry, AB Shetty Memorial Institute of Dental Sciences (ABSMIDS), Nitte (Deemed to be University), Mangalore, India.
Objective: To compare the efficacy of Jigsaw and Inquiry-Based Learning (IBL) methods in promoting effective learning outcomes within diverse dental educational settings.
Methods: A total of 188 dental undergraduate students were recruited for the study and divided into Batch A (n = 96) and Batch B (n = 92). Each batch underwent two teaching sessions, one using the Jigsaw method and the other using IBL.
