The purpose of this research is to evaluate the effectiveness of video-on-demand(VoD) learning and low-fidelity simulation in improving first-year student nurses'clinical competence and confidence in Dumaguete City. This study employs a descriptive correlations, research design, involving 214 first-year student nurse's selected through cluster sampling from Foundation University.Data were collected using a researcher-designed survey questionnaire, which was validated before use.Statistical tools such as Weighted Mean and Spearman rank correlation were used for data analysis. Results indicate that first-year student nurses demonstrate adequate levels of competence and self-confidence in performing low-fidelitysimulations.While the availability and perceived effectiveness of VoD resources are high, their overall impact on enhancing students' clinical proficiency and assertiveness appears low. The findings highlight the importance of both educational tools,although their current utilization does not significantly improve student performance. The study concludes with recommendations for further research to optimize the use of these tools to better enhance students' learning and clinical preparation.
