Opportunities and Challenges of Artificial Intelligence in Transforming Nursing Education in Bangladesh

Abstract

We write this letter to draw attention to and highlight the transformative potential and challenges of artificial intelligence (AI) in nursing education in Bangladesh.AI technology, capable of simulating human intelligence, is increasingly recognized for its role in improving access, personalizing learning, and enhancing skill development in healthcare education.The World Health Organization (WHO, 2021) acknowledges AI's value in providing remote learning and virtual simulations, which are invaluable for nursing students, especially in underserved areas.Through AI-driven simulations, students can safely practice clinical skills, gaining hands-on experience without dependency on physical resources.However, implementing AI in Bangladesh faces significant challenges, including data privacy, ethical concerns, and the digital divide.Many areas lack the necessary infrastructure and training required to integrate AI tools effectively, highlighting the need for substantial investment.Further, resistance to AI among faculty and administrators, due to unfamiliarity or concerns about automation, presents an obstacle to widespread adoption.To overcome these challenges, collaboration with policymakers and investment in digital infrastructure are essential.Training for both educators and students will also help bridge gaps in digital literacy.With thoughtful implementation, AI can play a vital role in improving nursing education quality and preparing future nurses to meet evolving healthcare demands in Bangladesh.
