Background: This scoping review aimed to identify the issues faced by nursing students, including those in undergraduate and graduate programs, during the emergency academic learning transition from face-to-face to remote learning at the outset of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic.
Method: Five electronic databases were searched for eligible studies, published between January 2020 and May 2023. Studies that focused on remote learning among nursing students during the COVID-19 pandemic were eligible for inclusion. Subsequently, the data were extracted and thematically synthesized.
Results: After searching and reviewing the literature, 34 primary and empirical studies were identified. The data synthesis identified six themes, including four weaknesses and two strengths.
Conclusion: This review demonstrated that nursing students have endeavored to overcome the situation amid the sudden transition in educational modalities and remained committed to their academic progress. We recommend that a new paradigm of nursing education should be prepared for nursing students and faculties. [J Nurs Educ. 2024;63(2):108-115.].
