Abstract

The evolving needs of healthcare systems and the increasing number of students in health sciences schools necessitate a transformation of teaching practices. This study evaluates the impact of innovative teaching methods on the academic performance of nursing and midwifery students and analyzes the role of Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) in their learning. A mixed-methods cross-sectional study was conducted at the Institute of Nursing and Midwifery Training (IFSIO) of the University of Parakou. Quantitative data include 53,068 exam grades covering four academic years (2021-2025) and questionnaires completed by 287 students. Multivariate analysis using linear regression with robust standard errors assessed the effect of innovative methods on grades.
