Abstract

National Defense and Security Education is a course designed to develop students’ political resilience, civic responsibility, and ability to respond to defense and security situations. However, when taught to Nursing students using traditional instructional methods, certain limitations become apparent, particularly in terms of engagement and practical application. This article analyzes the implementation of the group discussion method in teaching National Defense and Security Education to Nursing students at Nam Dinh University of Nursing. Based on this analysis, the paper proposes several recommendations to enhance the effectiveness of National Defense and Security Education teaching in Nursing education institutions.
