Abstract:
Due to scarce opportunities for professional development in clinical teaching, an online learning community was developed to provide initial and ongoing education for novice and experienced clinical instructors. Asynchronous learning modules were developed that included discussion boards to share best practices. Results demonstrated a significant change in the participants' knowledge of clinical teaching as well as the identification of a lack of confidence among novice instructors (p < .05). This research establishes the benefit of a learning community for both new and experienced clinical instructors and the need to increase confidence in their teaching abilities.
