Nursing Process for Patient and Caregiver Teaching I: Assessment and Diagnosis

The nursing process provides a clinical decision-making framework for patients and families to establish and implement a personalized care plan. Since part of the nurse's duties is to teach patients, the steps of the nursing process are the most effective way to approach instruction. The nursing process and the teaching-learning process are inextricably linked.
It is critical to determine the patient's learning needs during the assessment. Determination of learning needs compounds data from the...

Cognitive Learning

Cognitive learning is based on purposive behavior, incidental learning, and insight learning.
E. C. Tolman's theory of purposive behavior emphasizes that much behavior is goal-directed. He argued that to understand behavior, we must look at the entire sequence of actions leading to a goal. For instance, high school students study hard, not just due to past reinforcement but also to achieve the goal of getting into a good college.
Tolman introduced the idea that behavior is influenced by...

Principle of Virtual Work: Problem Solving

The principle of virtual work is an essential concept in the field of mechanics and engineering. This is used to solve problems related to the equilibrium of a structure or system. It is based on the assumption that if a system is in equilibrium, the work done by all the forces during a virtual displacement is zero. This principle is applied by considering virtual displacements of the system and the corresponding work done by internal and external forces.
To apply the principle of virtual work,...

Purposive Learning

E. C. Tolman emphasized the purposiveness of behavior — the idea that much of our behavior is goal-directed. For instance, employees who aim for a promotion work diligently to meet their targets. Tolman argued that when classical conditioning and operant conditioning occur, the organism acquires certain expectations. In classical conditioning, a child might fear a dog because they expect it to bite. In operant conditioning, a person might consistently work overtime because they expect a bonus...
Critical Thinking I01:24

Critical Thinking I

Critical thinking helps decision-making and allows nurses to recognize barriers to success and find solutions to possible issues. It helps to brainstorm and implement ideas to achieve goals. Critical thinking helps acknowledge and state workflow inefficiencies while improving management techniques. Nurses understand the value of critical thinking and look for fellow nurses with critical thinking skills to upgrade their professional standards. Critical thinking can advance a nurse's career with...

Area of Science:

  • Nursing Education
  • Online Learning
  • Leadership Development

Background:

  • Doctoral nursing programs have expanded, with a growing trend towards online delivery.
  • A gap exists in the literature regarding effective online teaching methodologies for doctoral nursing education.
  • Nurse educators require strong leadership skills, particularly in evolving educational landscapes.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe a novel problem-based learning (PBL) activity for an online doctoral nursing course.
  • To evaluate the impact of the Students-As-Faculty Experience on leadership development in nurse educator doctoral students.
  • To address the need for innovative online pedagogical strategies in higher nursing education.

Main Methods:

  • Implementation of a semester-long, problem-based learning Students-As-Faculty Experience in an online doctoral nursing leadership course.
  • Students assumed roles of virtual nursing program faculty, participating in simulated faculty meetings and rotating chairperson duties.
  • Students actively co-designed course elements, including meeting agendas and evaluation rubrics, fostering engagement.

Main Results:

  • Students reported significant improvements in their leadership abilities after participating in the Students-As-Faculty Experience.
  • Student confidence in their leadership capacity increased notably by the course's conclusion.
  • The PBL approach effectively simulated real-world faculty challenges and responsibilities.

Conclusions:

  • The Students-As-Faculty Experience is an effective pedagogical strategy for developing leadership skills in online doctoral nursing programs.
  • Problem-based learning can be successfully adapted for online doctoral education, enhancing student engagement and practical skill development.
  • This innovative approach addresses the need for robust leadership training within the growing field of online nurse educator preparation.
