Virtual human: There are five scenarios integrated into Virtual human software.
Printed material: The comparison group will read the printed material regarding SPMSQ assessment.
Study summary
Purpose of the Study This study wants to find out whether a virtual human (a computer-based simulated person) can help nursing students learn how to assess someone's thinking and memory skills.
Main Question Do nursing students learn cognitive function assessment better when they use a virtual human compared with reading printed materials?
What Participants Will Do Participants will learn how to do a cognitive function assessment for about 60 minutes, either by using a virtual human or by reading printed materials.

Primary outcome measure(s)
Competence of cognitive function assessment — 60 minutes Participants are required to conduct a cognitive function assessment on the virtual patient within a designed clinical scenario. The system assigns a score based on the completion of each item, with higher scores indicating better cognitive assessment ability.
Knowledge of cognitive function assessment — 60 minutes A total of ten items were included. Each correct answer receives one point, while incorrect or "don't know" responses receive zero points. The total score ranges from 0 to 10, with higher scores indicating better knowledge of cognitive function assessment among the students.
Confidence scale — 60 minutes The scale consists of five items, each scored from 1 to 5, with a total score ranging from 5 to 25. Higher scores indicate greater confidence in performing cognitive function assessments among the participants.
