Cover Story: The transition to fully online courses without preliminary planning presented a problematic shock to most nursing students and faculty. This research compared nursing and non-nursing students with similar demographic characteristics. While the ranking of critical success factors was similar for nursing and ‘other’ students, the perceptions of nursing students were generally far more critical of the capability of online learning, partially due to the perception that the online medium is less well-suited to nursing education (especially clinicals), and partially because of instructional challenges caused by the rapid transition. Without aggressive efforts to improve online teaching in programs with similar circumstances, students’ perceptions of overall quality may not improve significantly in the long term. View this paper
