| The jigsaw technique is a cooperative learning approach that reduces racial conflict among students, promotes better learning, improves student achievements. Aim of the present study was to evaluate the effect of the cooperative jigsaw learning strategy on community nursing students' attitudes and achievements. Research design: A quasi-experimental study was utilized. Sample: A convenient sample of 230 participants recruited from fourth -year nursing students at the faculty of nursing- Benha University during the course entitled community health nursing in the academic year 2020-2021. Those students were divided into two groups, control group (120) "lecture group" and study group (110) "jigsaw group". Tools of data collection; 1) self-administered questionnaire, 2) Learning's achievement tool, 3) Likert attitude scale, 4) cooperative jigsaw opinion sheet, in addition to supportive material related to jigsaw strategy. Results: There were statistically significant differences between jigsaw and lecture groups regarding learning achievements immediately after intervention as p-value ≤0.05, also there were statistically significant differences between both groups in follow up test with p-value ≤0.001. Additionally, the students in the jigsaw group exhibited a more positive attitude regarding the jigsaw strategy than the students in the lecture group. Conclusion: The jigsaw learning strategy is effective in enhancing community nursing students' attitudes and achievements during geriatric health nursing course. Recommendations: Apply cooperative jigsaw learning strategy as a teaching method in nursing student curriculums. Further research is still needed to study the effect of jigsaw learning strategy on clinical achievement. | ||||
