This study conducted a survey on information literacy among first-year nursing students. The purpose was to evaluate their understanding of informatics, identify the current status and challenges of medical informatics education at vocational schools, and incorporate the findings into course design. Based on the results from two years of surveys, it was concluded that lecture content should be revised to promote the use of informatics as a tool for learning and work, while emphasizing its relevance to Japan's national nursing licensing examination and nursing practice activities. Efforts should also focus on enhancing students' motivation to learn.
