We introduced systematic training in chest compression-only CPR and automated external defibrillator (AED) use to elementary school students. The questionnaire compared student attitudes towards CPR and their knowledge about it before and after CPR training. To assess the effectiveness of the demonstration method and simulation method among school students. To compare the level of knowledge of demonstration method versus simulation method teaching among school students. A quantitative descriptive study was conducted among school students aged between 14 and 15 years. A self-structured questionnaire’ was administered to 60 school students were used as data collection tool. Participants were selected by a simple random sampling technique. The demographic variable father’s occupation (χ2=9.714, p=0.046) had shown a statistically significant association with the level of knowledge on CPR among school students in the demonstration group at p<0.05 level and the other demographic variables had not shown a statistically significant association with the level of knowledge on CPR among school students in the demonstration group. The overall results showed that simulation-based learning (SBL) is a positive, safe and effective method for nursing students in clinical and simulation room settings to improve the skills and practice of client care.
