Beyond Discussion: Implementing Multimodal Learning in a Nurse Practitioner Program

End-of-program feedback from students reflected a decreased level of active engagement and retention in learning at a public university in the upper Midwest of the United States. Results prompted educators to explore integration of multimodal instruction within the postlicensure family nurse practitioner program. A graduate program faculty work group was created to review and revise the curriculum. Through the utilization of national organization standards, implementation of evidence-based best practices, and a shared vision, a small group of nurse faculty was able to complete significant improvement in the graduate curriculum within a single academic year.
