The goal of this interventional study is to evaluate the effectiveness of a composite active learning strategy, integrating the Flipped Classroom model and Team-Based Learning (TBL), for improving Evidence-Based Practice (EBP) competence in second-year undergraduate nursing students. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Does the educational intervention significantly improve students' self-reported knowledge of EBP concepts? * Does the educational intervention significantly improve students' self-reported skills in EBP processes (e.g., critical appraisal)? * Does the educational intervention significantly improve students' attitudes towards EBP? Participants, who were all second-year nursing students enrolled in a specific academic year, took part in a mandatory 64-hour EBP educational module. Their main tasks were: * To complete a validated self-assessment questionnaire (the Evidence-Based Practice Competence Questionnaire, EBP-COQ) at baseline (March 2024) and immediately following the intervention (April 2024). * To engage in the "Core EBP" module of the course (12 hours), which was delivered using a Team-Based Learning (TBL) strategy. This module comprised: * Asynchronous individual preparatory study (Flipped Classroom phase) of provided scientific articles and lecture notes, conducted 1-2 weeks prior to each session. * Participation in three in-person, 4-hour interactive sessions (12 contact hours total), following the structured TBL cycle of Readiness Assurance (iRAT and tRAT) and Team Application exercises.
