Abstract:
Current trends in health care delivery require nursing programs to change how education is presented to nursing students. Active learning strategies, such as discovery learning through kinesthetic activities, have been associated with increases in student engagement and satisfaction. A kinesthetic learning strategy was developed and implemented at a licensed practical nursing program to increase student engagement and provide knowledge of cardiovascular function and various etiologies associated with the heart. The goals of the activity were to provide deeper understanding and improve critical thinking and clinical application for the student.
