1University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, Milwaukee, Wisconsin.
Background:
The 2021 American Association of Colleges of Nursing (AACN) The Essentials: Core Competencies for Professional Nursing Education was the accelerant for moving nursing academia toward competency-based education (CBE). CBE is grounded in ongoing mastery with consistent progression throughout the program. Resources are needed for integrating the new Essentials into nursing programs.
Method:
A team of nurse educators worked to gain understanding of the Essentials and CBE. The end product was development of a scaffolded learning tool (SLT) to guide faculty.
Results:
The SLT incorporates outcome statements reflecting introduction, reinforcement, and mastery for each subcompetency. Each subcompetency has an exemplar of teaching strategies for nurse educators to use within their courses, with suggested curriculum placement.
Conclusion:
The SLT serves as a guide for nurse educators to apply the Essentials through integration of Bloom's taxonomy to prepare competent nurses.
