Sumario:This exploratory study examined nursing students' perceptions of an e-learning module designed to enhance their knowledge about older adults living with dementia and responsive behaviours. A survey was administered to third-year baccalaureate nursing students at a Canadian university after they completed the e-learning module. Our sample included 119 participants. A feedback survey assessed students' perceptions of the e-learning module using four 5-point Likert-type items and one open-ended question. Descriptive statistics were used to summarize participants' responses and demographic characteristics. Open-ended responses were content analyzed. Participants reported that the module enhanced their confidence and knowledge in managing responsive behaviours. Participants also reported the method of instruction to be enjoyable. Results suggest that the e-learning module has potential for complementing a comprehensive approach to gerontological education.
