1Teachers College, Columbia University, New York, NY.
Objectives:
Despite a growing population of individuals with cancer, there is limited oncology content in prelicensure nursing curricula. A distance learning oncology nursing elective course creates an option for integration into nursing programs. The purpose of this article is to describe curriculum development for an online oncology elective course using feedback and expertise from oncology nurses.
Data Sources:
An online oncology course curriculum was developed and then shared with 70 oncology nurse experts to elicit feedback on course objectives, content, teaching strategies, and evaluation methods using a survey and open-ended questions.
Conclusion:
Experts agreed course objectives, content, teaching strategies, and evaluation methods were clear and comprehensive. Curriculum revisions were made based on recommendations from expert clinicians. A curriculum table for this proposed course is presented.
Nursing Implications For Practice:
There is a need for oncology nursing curriculum in prelicensure programs. Educators should consider innovative ways of increasing academic-practice partnerships in curriculum development.
