Özet

To assess the nursing curriculum and point out learning outcomes in Turkey. A cross-sectional design was used in this study. This study was conducted between May and June 2017 from 23 undergraduate nursing schools' education programs for one education and academic year's curriculum. The public information of the universities collected from their web sites and learning outcomes of the schools were classified as cognitive, psychomotor, and affective domains. It appears that half of the basic nursing courses are in the psychomotor domain, and the majority of basic medical sciences courses are in the cognitive domain. Learning outcomes about the affective domain mostly take place in basic nursing courses. The findings of the results of this study can provide insight into current nursing education and guide new curricula to be developed.
