Purposive Learning01:22

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...
Self-Evaluation Maintenance Model01:29

Self-Evaluation Maintenance Model

The Self-Evaluation Maintenance (SEM) model offers a psychological framework to understand how individuals’ self-esteem is influenced by the achievements of others, particularly those with whom they share close personal bonds. The SEM model operates when personal rather than social identity guides individuals. Central to this model is the notion that individuals have an inherent desire to preserve a favorable self-image, which is continuously shaped by interpersonal comparisons and...

Growth Models with Integration: Problem Solving

In population modeling, integration provides a systematic way to determine accumulated quantities from known rates of change. One such application arises in ecology, where the total weight of a fish population in a body of water is referred to as its biomass. When the rate of growth of this biomass is known as a function of time, calculus can be used to determine the total biomass at a future date.Growth Rate and Biomass FunctionLet the growth rate of the fish population be represented by a...
Cognitive Learning01:21

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...
Application of Integration: Problem Solving01:30

Application of Integration: Problem Solving

The process of breathing involves the periodic intake and expulsion of air, known as the respiratory cycle, which typically lasts about five seconds. Modeling the volume of air inhaled into the lungs as a function of time provides insight into both the dynamics and efficiency of pulmonary ventilation. This volume is determined by integrating the airflow rate over time, which captures the cumulative effect of air entering the lungs.Sinusoidal Model of AirflowAirflow during respiration is not...

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...

    Summary

    Nursing students improved clinical learning through the Clinical Goals Initiative. This program fostered goal setting, enhancing student engagement, autonomy, and communication with mentors.

    Area of Science:

    • Nursing Education
    • Clinical Learning Strategies
    • Professional Development

    Background:

    • Traditional clinical settings often lack structured approaches for integrative learning and situated coaching.
    • Enhancing the clinical learning environment is crucial for developing competent nursing professionals.
    • Sophomore, junior, and senior nursing students require effective strategies to optimize their practical training.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate the effectiveness of the Clinical Goals Initiative in promoting structure and increasing learning in the clinical setting for nursing students.
    • To assess the impact of a goal-development mechanism on student engagement, direction, and focus during clinical practicums.
    • To determine if the initiative enhances student self-learning, autonomy, and communication with faculty and mentors.

    Main Methods:

    • The Clinical Goals Initiative was implemented for sophomore, junior, and senior nursing students during their clinical practicums.
    • Students developed weekly goals across three domains of professional nursing practice.
    • Goals were shared with faculty and staff nurse mentors to guide learning experience planning, followed by a 6-week evaluation survey.

    Main Results:

    • Faculty reported that goal development significantly improved student engagement, direction, and focus in clinical learning.
    • Students found that goal development enabled them to optimize learning opportunities and effectively track their progress.
    • Both faculty and students agreed that the goals fostered self-learning, autonomy, and enhanced communication.

    Conclusions:

    • The Clinical Goals Initiative effectively promotes structure and enhances learning in the clinical nursing setting.
    • Goal development is a valuable strategy for increasing student engagement, autonomy, and communication in clinical practicums.
    • This initiative provides a framework for optimizing nursing students' clinical education and professional growth.
