Abstract

Background: Character building is an important aspect of nursing education to produce competent and ethical professional nurses. Nursing education emphasizes not only technical skills but also the development of moral values and leadership. Purpose: To explore the experiences of nursing students in shaping character through nursing education. Method: A phenomenological approach was used by conducting in-depth interviews with ten nursing students. The data were analyzed thematically to identify the experiences and processes of character formation. Results: Show that the formation of partisipants character is a dynamic process involving four main aspects: clinical practice experience, self-reflection, social interaction and organizational activities, and internalization of moral and ethical values. Practical experience builds responsibility and decision-making, self-reflection increases professional awareness, social interaction hones communication and leadership skills, while moral values become the ethical foundation. Conclusion: Nursing education must integrate practice, reflection, social interaction, and moral values to form students who are competent as well as characterful and ethical.

Abstract

Background: Leadership is an important competency in nursing education, but students' experience in understanding lecturer leadership management is still rarely explored. Purpose: To understand students' experiences related to lecturer leadership management in nursing education. Method: A phenomenological approach with in-depth interviews with 12 students as participants was employed. The data was analyzed thematically to identify the experiences and meanings gained by students related to lecturer leadership. Results: The analysis showed four main themes: (1) lecturers as role models in leadership management, (2) guidance and mentoring in the leadership process, (3) open communication and interaction in leadership management, and (4) instilling ethical and leadership values by lecturers. Students assess direct interaction with lecturers, practical experience, and intensive mentorship as important factors in the development of professional leadership competencies. Conclusion: Student experiences confirm that lecturer leadership management shapes the professional understanding, skills, and values applied in nursing practice.
