Nursing Process for Patient and Caregiver Teaching I: Assessment and Diagnosis

Nursing Process for Patient and Caregiver Teaching I: Assessment and Diagnosis

The nursing process provides a clinical decision-making framework for patients and families to establish and implement a personalized care plan. Since part of the nurse's duties is to teach patients, the steps of the nursing process are the most effective way to approach instruction. The nursing process and the teaching-learning process are inextricably linked.
It is critical to determine the patient's learning needs during the assessment. Determination of learning needs compounds data...

Cognitive Learning

Cognitive Learning

Cognitive learning is based on purposive behavior, incidental learning, and insight learning.
E. C. Tolman's theory of purposive behavior emphasizes that much behavior is goal-directed. He argued that to understand behavior, we must look at the entire sequence of actions leading to a goal. For instance, high school students study hard, not just due to past reinforcement but also to achieve the goal of getting into a good college.
Tolman introduced the idea that behavior is influenced by...

Introduction to Learning

Introduction to Learning

Learning is the process of acquiring knowledge or skills through practice or experience, leading to long-lasting behavioral changes. This acquisition occurs through interaction with the environment and requires practice or experience. For instance, mastering a skill such as surfing requires considerable practice and experience, highlighting the essential role of repeated interactions with the environment in learning.
In contrast to learned behaviors, unlearned behaviors such as crying, sexual...

Area of Science:

Digital learning environments
Health professions education (HPE)
Learning analytics

Background:

Learning analytics involve analyzing digital footprints to improve educational design and teaching.
Educators have not fully utilized available learning analytics data from digital platforms.
Existing research indicates a gap in capitalizing on learning analytics in HPE.

Purpose of the Study:

To adapt a learning analytics lifecycle framework for evaluating digital learning in HPE.
To identify implementation gaps and opportunities in the eduCAST orthopaedic surgery training platform.
To develop transferable recommendations for educators in HPE regarding learning analytics.

Main Methods:

Adapted an established learning analytics lifecycle framework.
Evaluated eduCAST, a video-based online orthopaedic surgery training website.
Analyzed demographic and engagement data of 141 registered users via website analytics.

Main Results:

Limitations and opportunities were identified in planning, data scope, analysis techniques, and educator actions.
Generic website analytics showed low correlation between traffic and meaningful engagement.
Analytics provided limited insights for website refinement, yielding 'data mysteries' rather than 'data stories.'

Conclusions:

Educators in HPE often show diminishing investment across the learning analytics lifecycle.
Learning analytics frameworks can guide the design, implementation, evaluation, and sustainability of digital learning.
Thoughtful use of learning analytics can enhance learner outcomes, support educators, and inform program refinement.
