Abstract Nursing education has embraced innovative methodologies, including web-based, blended, and simulation-based learning strategies. These methods have been designed to enhance critical thinking, clinical skills, and self-efficacy among students. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of these strategies in nursing education. A systematic review of peer-reviewed articles published between 2019 and 2024 was conducted. The studies included in this review focused on the use of web-based, blended, and simulation-based learning in nursing education. A total of 13 studies were selected based on the inclusion criteria, which emphasized innovative teaching strategies and their effects on student performance and engagement. The studies highlighted the benefits of blended learning, which integrates online and face-to-face instruction, as it improves students' problem-solving and critical thinking skills. Web-based learning was found to be effective in improving knowledge retention and clinical preparedness, while simulation-based learning significantly boosted students’ confidence and reduced anxiety in high-stress environments such as maternity clinical practice. These innovative methods foster active learning and promote real-time feedback, enhancing student engagement and preparedness for clinical practice. Despite the promising results, the studies also revealed several limitations, including small sample sizes and reliance on self-reported data. Future research should focus on longitudinal studies with larger sample sizes to better understand the long-term effects of these teaching strategies on clinical competence and patient outcomes. The integration of blended, web-based, and simulation-based learning strategies significantly improves nursing students' academic performance, self-efficacy, and clinical skills. However, more robust research is needed to further establish their effectiveness in diverse educational and clinical settings.
