Remote Presence Robot Faculty Extender Research Study
• 8 pre-licensure RN programs participated (Rural, Community, Urban – ADN & BSN)
• Subjects – 10 experienced nurse faculty – 82 nursing students (all levels)
1st year students = 14
2nd year students = 30
3rd year students = 21
4th year students = 17

Purpose of Research
Gathering impressions from faculty and students about usefulness of the remote presence robot as a faculty extender in clinical simulation learning
10
Objectives of This Study
• Evaluate faculty’s acceptance of the use of a remote robot for education and training of nursing students
• Evaluate nursing students’ acceptance of receiving clinical instruction via a remote presence robot
• Evaluate ergonomics application for nursing education and training
11
Study Study MethodsMethods
• Selection
Experienced and qualified faculty recruited from RN programs
• Training
Robot operation and simulation scenario orientation
• Scheduling and student volunteers
• Pre/Post survey data & video recording of sessions

Students’ Students’ AdditionalAdditionalFindingsFindings
Students’ Positive Comments • Encouraged to think independently
with faculty supervision which reduced stress
• Enjoyed working with advanced technology such as the robot and simulator
• Good environmental learning without stress
• Will create opportunity for distance learning
• This study demonstrated the focus on learning process rather than techniques in a regular lab.

Overall Study
Conclusion
Preliminary study demonstrated
that both participants, faculty
and students, gave high
acceptance rating for the use of
remote presence robot as a
faculty extender technology for
teaching nursing courses.

Future Study Future Study QuestionsQuestions
• Can expert faculty be used via the robot to serve as teaching mentors to novice faculty and teaching assistants?
• Can expert nurse clinicians be linked to learners via the RP7 robot for nursing rounds or other learning experiences?
