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...

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 from the...

Summary

Bundled self-regulated learning strategies, not isolated study habits, significantly improve performance on National Association of Boards of Pharmacy Licensure Examination (NAPLEX) readiness exams. Academic coaching should focus on integrated approaches for better student preparation.

Area of Science:

Pharmacy Education
Student Learning Strategies
Licensure Examination Preparation

Background:

Declining pass rates on the National Association of Boards of Pharmacy Licensure Examination (NAPLEX) are a growing concern.
Pharmacy programs utilize readiness exams to guide student self-preparation for licensure.

Purpose of the Study:

To investigate the relationship between clusters of self-regulated learning behaviors and performance on a NAPLEX readiness examination.
To assess the impact of these behaviors during Advanced Pharmacy Practice Experiences (APPEs).

Main Methods:

A retrospective observational cohort study surveyed final-year PharmD students.
Self-regulated learning behaviors were assessed using a modified Self-Regulation Strategy Inventory-Self-Report.
Associations between behavioral clusters and readiness exam performance were analyzed using correlation and regression models.

Main Results:

Higher pre-APPE GPA correlated with better readiness exam performance.
Individual self-regulated learning behaviors like planning and persistence were associated with higher scores.
Integrated clusters of self-regulated learning behaviors demonstrated stronger associations with exam success than individual strategies.

Conclusions:

Clusters of self-regulated learning behaviors are more predictive of NAPLEX readiness exam success than isolated study strategies.
Academic coaching should prioritize teaching bundled self-regulation techniques to enhance licensure readiness.
