Summary
Artistic expression, rooted in the human-becoming school of thought, was integrated into senior nursing students
Area of Science:
- Nursing Education
- Art Therapy
- Pedagogy
Background:
- The integration of art into nursing education has a history of positive outcomes.
- Various art-based educational methods are available for nursing programs.
Purpose of the Study:
- To explore the novel application of artistic expression, guided by the human-becoming school of thought, in senior nursing students.
- To assess the impact of this artistic expression on students' preceptor experiences and overall learning.
Main Methods:
- Artistic expression activities were incorporated into assignments during the final term of senior year.
- These assignments were directly linked to students' practical preceptor experiences.
- A reflective process was employed to analyze the outcomes of the artistic expression.
Main Results:
- The author experienced a profound 'coming to know' and personal enlightenment through the reflective process.
- The study highlights the significance of fostering creativity within the nursing curriculum.
Conclusions:
- Encouraging artistic expression can lead to significant personal and professional development for nursing students.
- The human-becoming school of thought provides a valuable framework for integrating art into nursing education.
- Curricula should actively promote creativity to enhance the teaching-learning process in nursing.

Nursing Process for Patient and Caregiver Teaching III: Evaluation and Documentation
Evaluation of the teaching process enables the nurse to determine if the patient's learning needs were met and if training was effective. If the expected outcomes are not met, the care plan is revised, and additional education or reinforcement is provided. Nurses can ask questions after the session or obtain feedback to assess the patient's understanding of the topic.
Nurses can use several methods to evaluate patient outcomes. For example, oral questions can assess cognitive learning, patient...

Steps in the Modeling Process
Albert Bandura's theory of observational learning identifies four critical processes: attention, retention, motor reproduction, and reinforcement or motivation.
Attention is the first necessary component for observational learning. It involves focusing on what the model is doing and saying. For example, if you decide to take a drawing class to enhance your skills, you need to pay close attention to the instructor's words and hand movements. The characteristics of the model significantly...

Nursing Process for Patient and Caregiver Teaching II: Planning and Implementation
Planning for learning involves the development of a teaching plan. Teaching plans are similar to nursing care plans—both follow the steps of the nursing process. Planning in the teaching process involves setting goals and outcomes. Here, goals identify what a patient needs to achieve to understand a healthcare topic better, whereas the outcomes are the action to be performed by the patient to achieve the goal within a timeframe. For example, if the goal is to educate the patient about insulin...
Creative Thinking
Creative thinking encompasses innovative and unconventional methods for addressing challenges, often leading to groundbreaking solutions. Instead of focusing solely on enhancing existing systems, such as increasing smartphone battery capacity, creative thinking might inspire advancements like energy-efficient batteries or processors that minimize power consumption. This multidimensional approach underscores the importance of exploring novel pathways to innovation.

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...
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.
