Abstract

NCLEX is a competency test for a nurse who wants to get a license as a professional nursing. NCLEX measures the ability of a nurse safely and effectively nursing. In nursing diploma institution, there is no material which discusses NCLEX. Therefore, this institution needs to prepare the students by following distance learning. This study aimed to explore the experience of nursing diploma students preparing NCLEX through a distance learning. A qualitative interpretive phenomenology approach was applied as the research design. Purposive sampling technique was chosen to get the participants according to the inclusion criteria. There were six participants involved in this study. The data collection method used the semi-structured interviews and recording devices. The data were analyzed by applying Braun and Clarke Thematic Analysis. Four overarching themes emerged from this study. The themes included comparing the science of nursing, getting a new perception of NCLEX, obstacles in language and the need of adequate facilities. Distance learning is one of the learning innovation to facilitate the material that arenot obtained in the institutions. Based on the students' experiences, the distance learning gives a new experience for the students in the aspect of nursing science in the other countries and makes a comparison of that. The students have a new perspective of NCLEX, particularly, about the importance of NCLEX. Supporting the distance learning needs the adequate facilities and the students' ability of English mastery.
