Introduction. Nursing education has undergone an evolution – from traditional models to methods that rely on technology to acquire knowledge, moving toward student-centered learning, teaching, and assessment.
Aim. The aim of this paper is to analyse the literature on the use of modern technologies in the education of nurses and midwives.
Material and methods. A critical analysis of the scientifi c literature was performed. The following databases were searched: PubMed, CINAHL® Complete, Web of Science, using a combination of keywords: mobile technologies, nursing, midwife, education, clinical education, apps.
Conclusions. The literature provides various examples of innovative teaching and learning models in nursing and midwifery education. These methods involve combining traditional teaching with the use of novel technologies such as simulations, e-learning sessions, virtual learning environments, and the use of social media or applications on mobile devices (smartphones, tablets, etc.). The rapid technological growth and evolving expectations of today’s students are forcing the need to off er them educational services that make a broader use of visual media, provide feedback, and provide environments that allow students develop their own ways on how to acquire knowledge and skills. Smartphone-based learning can be considered an eff ective complementary method for delivering educational materials to nursing and midwifery students to enhance their skills.
