Summary
Experienced faculty utilize tools, systems, and rich environments to provide effective feedback in online nursing education. This approach enhances the online learning experience for students advancing their education.
Area of Science:
- Nursing Education
- Online Learning Pedagogy
- Educational Technology
Background:
- Online courses are increasingly popular for nurses seeking further education.
- Effective feedback is crucial for online learning success, yet its implementation can be challenging.
- This study investigates how experienced faculty deliver feedback in online nursing courses.
Purpose of the Study:
- To identify and describe the strategies experienced faculty use to provide feedback to students in online courses.
- To understand the best practices for feedback in online nursing education.
Main Methods:
- A descriptive exploratory study design was employed.
- Faculty were surveyed using broad exploratory questions and a validation survey.
- Participants were faculty from four states known for benchmarking online education best practices.
Main Results:
- Content analysis of survey data revealed 15 distinct themes related to faculty feedback practices.
- These themes were categorized into three main areas: utilizing optimal tools, implementing systematic approaches, and fostering a feedback-rich environment.
- Key strategies include leveraging technology, establishing clear feedback protocols, and creating consistent opportunities for student interaction and feedback.
Conclusions:
- The study findings align with and expand existing guidelines for effective online education.
- Emphasis on multisource feedback opportunities integrated into course design is recommended.
- Implementing these strategies can enhance the quality of online nursing education and student learning outcomes.

01:15Nursing Implementation
Implementation is the execution of the nursing care plan developed during the planning phase.
The five steps to implementing effective nursing care include reassessing the patient, reviewing and revising the existing nursing care plan, organizing the resources and care delivery, anticipating and preventing complications, and implementing nursing interventions.

01:30National Nursing Organizations II
Nursing organizations play a vital role in representing nurses working in specialized clinical settings, such as the American Association of Critical-Care Nurses (AACN).
The AACN emphasizes a healthy work environment through six standards to achieve an optimal patient outcome. The standards are appropriate staffing, meaningful recognition, collaboration, authentic leadership, effective communication, and decision-making. In addition, AACN provides certification programs, webinars, journals, and...

01:24Nursing 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...
01:30Theoretical Foundations of Nursing Practice
Theories play an essential role in organizing patient care. Theories refer to a proposed or followed belief, policy, or procedure that is the basis for action. Nursing theories are knowledge-based concepts that guide nurses' actions, influence nursing education and practice, and allow nurses to care for their patients.
Theories provide a perspective to assess patients' conditions and organize data and methods. They also assist in analyzing and interpreting information. They represent a...

01:26Modeling in Therapy
Modeling, a key technique in therapy, uses observational learning to help clients acquire and practice new skills by watching therapists demonstrate desired behaviors. This approach, rooted in Albert Bandura's concept of vicarious learning, plays a significant role in therapeutic interventions for various psychological conditions, including social anxiety, ADHD, and depression.
