Theories informing technology enhanced learning in nursing and midwifery education: A systematic review and typological classification

Learning is a complex process involving internal cognitive processes and external stimuli from 
curricula, pedagogical strategies, and the learning environment. Theories are used extensively in higher education to understand the intricacies of adult learning and improve student outcomes. Nursing and midwifery 
education uses a range of technology-enhanced learning (e-learning) approaches, some of which are underpinned 
by theoretical frameworks. 
Objective: Synthesise literature on theories that inform technology-enhanced learning in nursing and midwifery 
education.
