Nursing Process for Patient and Caregiver Teaching III: Evaluation and Documentation

2.7K
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,...

Social Foundations of Self I: Play and Game

306
The development of self in children is deeply rooted in social interactions, mainly through stages of play and structured games. These stages, outlined by sociologist George Herbert Mead, illustrate how children progressively learn to understand and adopt social roles, forming a cohesive sense of self.The Play Stage: Imitation and Simple Role-TakingIn the early years of childhood, the play stage is characterized by imitative behavior, where children engage in role-playing based on familiar...

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...

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

2.6K
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...

Nursing Process for Patient and Caregiver Teaching II: Planning and Implementation

2.3K
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...

Behaviorism01:28

Behaviorism

7.7K
The field of behaviorism was pioneered by figures such as Ivan Pavlov, John B. Watson, and B.F. Skinner fundamentally shifted the focus of psychology to the observable and controllable aspects of human and animal behavior. This shift marked a critical evolution in the discipline, emphasizing scientific rigor and experimental methodology.
The core premise of behaviorism is its focus on observable behavior rather than internal thoughts or feelings. This approach argues that true scientific...

Area of Science:

  • Nursing Education
  • Online Learning Strategies
  • Evidence-Based Practice (EBP)

Background:

  • Traditional nursing research courses often fail to equip baccalaureate students with essential evidence-based practice (EBP) competencies.
  • Existing teaching methods in nursing education do not adequately foster the skills and attitudes necessary for EBP.
  • There is a need for innovative strategies to improve the teaching and learning of EBP in online nursing programs.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop, implement, and evaluate an innovative, game-based learning strategy for an online evidence-based practice (EBP) course.
  • To enhance student learning, engagement, and satisfaction within the EBP curriculum.
  • To describe the course development process, the game-based teaching strategy, and its pilot outcomes.

Main Methods:

  • Student satisfaction was assessed using midterm and end-of-course surveys.
  • Engagement was evaluated through game platform analytics and analysis of student comments.
  • Student learning was measured by final course letter grades.

Main Results:

  • Students reported high satisfaction with the online EBP course.
  • High levels of student engagement were sustained throughout the course, with 87% completing optional learning activities.
  • All 30 students achieved high final grades, with 17 earning A+ and 13 earning an A.

Conclusions:

  • Game-based learning effectively increases student engagement and motivation in online nursing education.
  • Strategies such as individualized feedback, student choice, and gamification (e.g., badges) promote mastery learning.
  • Integrating game mechanics into online courses can foster deeper learning and improve outcomes in evidence-based practice.
