More than half of the process of professionalization of nursing students occurs in the patient’s bedside. Therefore, the purpose of this paper is to introduce a teaching method based on Kolb’s learning cycle as a strategy to promote clinical education.

This review article is a review article based on information collected from Scopus, Iran medex, Science Direct, Pub Med, SID and Magiran data bases as well as library studies with Persian keywords of nursing students, teaching methods, experimental learning of Kolb, and clinical teaching in 2010-2021. Searching the databases of 63 articles was found and finally 24 articles were used in this study.

Empirical learning theory is the basis of Kolb’s theory. In this theory, learning is described as a process that is generated by the deformation of experience, knowledge or science. According to this view, there are 4 related steps in Kolb’s learning cycle, including: concrete experience, reflective observation, abstract conceptualisation and active experimentation. In this model, students actively participate in learning and the instructor plays a guiding and facilitating role in the learning process. The use of Kolb’s learning cycle makes it easy for students to create a link between theoretical and clinical education in appropriate clinical settings, relying on prior knowledge and gaining experiences in clinical settings.

It seems that kolb’s learning cycle teaching method is a suitable method for nursing education and can be used especially in clinical settings. Therefore, considering the advantages of this teaching method, it is recommended that nursing instructors consider the use of this method.

Monkey pox is a zoonotic diseas that is caused by an orthopox virus. It was identified for the first time in 1970 in Congo and spread to other parts of Africa (mainly West and Central). The emergence of the epidemic beyond Africa highlights the global importance of this disease. The risk of monkeypox outbreaks in the world is increasing. The spread of this disease to Europe and developed countries has sounded the alarm in the world. The purpose of this study is to investigate monkeypox from epidemiological aspects, preparedness and response strategies.

This article is a review type and related information is obtained through searching Persian and English articles based on the main objectives of the study in the scientific databases such as Magiran, PubMed, Science Direct, Google Scholar, SID and authoritative scientific sites such as CDC and WHO have been searched between 2015 and 2022.

The monkeypox virus is very similar to the smallpox virus. In areas where health resources are limited, Community participation in identifying and reporting disease risks is critical to identifying outbreaks. This is especially true for zoonotic diseases such as monkeypox in people living in remote areas with poor health services. In people who have not been vaccinated against smallpox, Monkeypox has an overall mortality rate of up to 11%. The disease can be transmitted in different ways. In the text of the article, the important aspects of the disease, including transmission methods, signs and symptoms, methods of identification, prevention, control and treatment of monkeypox disease have been discussed.

Considering the global health implications of the monkeypox outbreak, public health systems should be aware of effective strategies to reduce the potential spread of this disease.
