Instructional Storytelling: Application of the Clinical Judgment Model in Nursing
Background:
Little is known about the teaching and learning implications of instructional storytelling (IST) in nursing education or its potential connection to nursing theory.
Method:
The literature establishes storytelling as a powerful teaching-learning method in the educational, business, humanities, and health sectors, but little exploration exists that is specific to nursing.
Results:
An example of a story demonstrating application of the domains of Tanner's clinical judgment model links storytelling with learning outcomes appropriate for the novice nursing student.
Conclusion:
Application of Tanner's clinical judgment model offers consistency of learning experience while preserving the creativity inherent in IST. Further research into student learning outcomes achievement using IST is warranted as a step toward establishing best practices with IST in nursing education. [J Nurs Educ. 2017;56(5):305-308.].
