Educational environment of Hanoi Medical University in 2023: An evaluation from nursing students’ perspectives and some associated factors
Main Article Content
Abstract
Objectives: Describe nursing students' assessment of the educational environment of Hanoi Medical University in 2023 and identify some related factors. Methods: The study included 409 nursing students at Hanoi Medical University. Participants completed the Vietnamese version of the Dundee Ready Educational Environment Measure (DREEM) questionnaire, including 50 questions divided into five subscales. We employed linear regression to identify factors associated with the DREEM score. Results: The overall student perception of the educational environment was more positive than negative, with the mean total DREEM score of 117.6/200 (SD = 48.6). The mean total DREEM score was 47.65 points lower among fourth-year students than among first-year students. Sex was also found to be associated with certain DREEM subscales. “Students’ perceptions of teaching” mean scores were 6.36 points higher in female students than in male students (p < 0.05). Conclusions: The overall learning environment from the perspective of nursing students tends to be more positive, with the mean scores of all subscales are above average. Years of study and gender are associated with the DREEM scores. There is a need to implement mentorship programs, increase faculty support, and manage stress for senior students.
