This project introduces a suite of pre-recorded clinical skills videos for undergraduate nursing and midwifery students, aimed at enhancing teaching, learning and assessment. Developed using Universal Design for Learning (UDL) principles, the project ensures accessibility, flexibility and inclusivity for diverse learners. These videos support teaching by standardising clinical instruction, ensuring consistency and enabling educators to focus on higher-order facilitation and reflective practice. They provide flexible, self-paced access to essential clinical skills content, allowing students to revisit complex procedures and build confidence in a safe, supportive environment. For assessment, the videos serve as preparatory tools for Objective Structured Clinical Examinations (OSCEs), promoting consistency, readiness and reduced anxiety.
