Abstract
The nursing practice of nursing students is a key part of the curriculum of the Bachelor of Nursing Program. Students should have strong spirituality in learning and work (SLW) for effective practice in nursing care. This study aimed to explore the perspectives of improving the effectiveness of teaching and learning to enhance the SLW of nursing students. Data were collected from February to March 2023. A qualitative approach with an in-depth interview was conducted with three outstanding award nurses, three ward head nurses, and three nursing instructors. The instruments comprised the semi-structured interview guides and the field notes. Content analysis was performed to analyze the qualitative data. A study of teaching and learning to promote the spirituality in learning and work of nursing students consisted of four categories: (1) a spiritual perspective in learning and working; (2) teaching and learning to promote SLW; (3) practical teaching and learning values; and (4) commitment in the nursing profession. Teaching methods should emphasize being a good role model for teachers and a mentor in nursing practice. Nursing students should be allowed to reflect on their feelings about nursing practice with positive explanations for both nursing personnel and the placement. The results of the study would be applied to develop a curriculum for students pursuing further studies in health.
