Abstract:
There are many initiatives under way to teach nursing staff about evidence-based practice, but how many educators seek evidence as a basis for their teaching? Nursing education needs more higher quality research, teachers willing to question their current practices, and nurse educators who ask whether there is a better way of promoting learning and performance. This article provides a perspective of how nurse educators can develop an evidence-based approach to their teaching using the research that is available in nursing education.
