Unfolding case studies in pre-registration nursing education: lessons learned

Nursing education is undergoing radical change worldwide. There is criticism surrounding the content of education and the delivery. As a result, traditional methods of teaching and learning have been replaced by strategies that place greater emphasis on active learner interaction, critical thinking, and decision-making. Assisting pre-registration nurses to become competent and confident in clinical practice requires immersion in practice with sufficient support and coaching based on real life scenarios. Simulation via an unfolding case study approach is one way to provide interactive learning experiences where students acquire new skills that advance their clinical judgment with the aim of becoming safe, competent practitioners. Lessons learned from implementing an unfolding case study are discussed in this paper.

Valuing the emotions of leadership learning experience in nursing education

AimThis paper argues that a greater understanding of the role of emotions in experiencing leadership, the impact of role models and cultures of the workplace and profession, may enable further development for effective leadership development at undergraduate level and beyond.BackgroundLeadership has gained prominence as a necessary skill in nursing literature and policy, linking its importance to patient safety, working cultures, resilience and emotional labour globally. Viewed as essential in many undergraduate nursing programmes and a requirement by professional regulators, there is a globally agreed acceptance of its importance. Despite this, the focus on evaluating and researching the effectiveness of leadership learning and through experiences of students in contexts of learning remain limited. This paper presents a discussion on the importance of experiences of leadership, exploring the emotional impact and how enabling reflexivity and critical analysis can be integrated in education. An approach is proposed for nursing education where the emotional impact of experiencing leadership is given significance. Experiences of leadership in practice and educational learning in higher education should allow students to reflect and conceptualise experience, aligning educational contexts of learning. Acknowledgement of emotional experience and pragmatism provides opportunity to strengthen evidence and knowledge and establish leadership as a concept of value in the profession from an early stage.DesignA critical theoretical discussion paperMethodsBased on a narrative inquiry study, drawing on theory and philosophies of emotions in education and leadership from 1907 to 2023ResultsAcknowledgement of emotional experience and pragmatism provides opportunity to strengthen evidence and establish leadership as a concept of value in the profession from an early stage.ConclusionsPlacing value on the experience of leadership by reflexivity and pragmatic, experiential approaches to learning can align educational contexts of learning and focus on effective leadership learning for the nursing profession.Tweetable abstractPragmatic approaches and reflexivity rationalise emotional experiences of leadership and encourage critical thinking and learning

Transformative learning in nursing education: A concept analysis

ObjectiveThere is vast literature on transformative learning, which is an important aspect of nursing education, but its meaning remains unclear. It is therefore important to clarify the meaning of transformative learning, identify its attributes, antecedents and consequences to increase its use in nursing education, practice and research.MethodsWalker and Avant’s method was used, and the process provided a structured way to analyse the concept of ‘transformative learning’. Nursing education dictionaries, encyclopaedias, conference papers, research articles, dissertations, theses, journal articles, thesauri and relevant books through the database library and internet searches were reviewed. One hundred and two literature sources were reviewed, and data saturation was reached.ResultsThe results of the concept analysis of transformative learning within the context of nursing education identified three categories, namely, 1)Antecedents as cognitive and affective perspective, democratic education principles and inspiration; 2)Process through three phases, namely i) awareness through self-reflection, ii) the meaningful interactive, integrative and democratic construction process, and iii) metacognitive reasoning abilities; and 3)Outcomes. A theoretical definition of transformative learning was formulated. Theoretical validity was ensured.ConclusionThe results of the concept analysis of transformative learning were used to describe a model to facilitate transformative learning within the context of nursing education.     

探究式方法在《护理教育学》教学中的应用

目的探讨探究式教学方法在护理教育学中的应用。方法将2004级甲乙两个自然班分成实验班与对照班,在部分应用性护理教育学教学内容中分别采用探究式教学方法与传统讲授法进行教学。学期结束两班采用同一份试卷进行测试。将两班学生成绩进行统计分析,并在期末采用自制问卷对教学效果进行评价。结果在闭卷考中实验班与对照班成绩无统计学差异。而开卷考成绩,两个班差异明显,实验班高于对照班。总成绩亦是实验班高于对照班。结论探究式教学能提升学生自我学习能力,激发学生学习兴趣,有利于培养学生的组织能力及表达自己见解能力,提高学生运用知识解决实际问题的技能和思维能力;同时,探究式教学亦有利于教师自身能力的提高。

护理本科生参与护理学基础案例教学的真实体验

目的了解学生参与案例教学法的真实体验,以评价案例教学法的效果。方法以40名护理本科生为教学对象,在护理学基础课程的部分章节中采用案例教学法教学。课程结束后,选取12名学生,以座谈会形式了解学生对案例教学法的评价、收获、不足及改进建议。结果学生普遍反映案例教学法以学生为主体和核心,能够引发学生主动思考和主动学习,提高了学生的团队协作意识和沟通交流能力。然而,部分案例编制简单、个别教师案例教学流于形式、学生学业压力大以及学习动机消极可能是影响案例教学效果的重要因素。结论案例教学法较传统教学法具有不可替代的优势,但是要达到最好的教学效果,仍需要进一步的实践和修正。     

中美护理高等教育评价比较研究

目的分析中美两国在护理高等教育评价上的研究方向以及各自护理高等教育评价的特点,找出差异,为完善我国护理高等教育评价体系提供借鉴。方法检索PubMed和CNKI数据库于1997～2008年发表的关于中美护理高等教育评价的文献,运用内容分析法、比较研究法以及SPSS13．0统计软件进行分析。结果两国对护理高等教育评价的研究内容主要包括评价机构、评价指标体系、评价程序（或模式）以及评价手段。两国的评价机构和指标体系有很大不同。我国评价程序单一,对评价程序（或模式）的研究比例少于美国（P〈0．01）,且对评价手段的研究文献多属于综述类文献,研究类文献少。结论我国政府行政部门和护理专业学者已意识到护理高等教育评价的紧迫性和重要性。我们要借鉴美国的先进经验,成立适合我国国情的护理高等教育评价专业机构,构建评价指标体系,加强评价程序（或模式）和评价手段的研究,完善护理高等教育评价体系,促进护理高等教育的发展。
