Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Persistence is an important measure of success for individual students and institutions of higher learning. The purpose of this study was to explore personal and academic factors that influence persistence in online graduate nursing students. A predictive correlational study design was used. Data were extracted from existing student records in two online graduate programs within a large, urban college of nursing. A sample size of 197 graduate nursing students was selected, 94 who persisted to graduation from their program within 36 months and 103 who did not. Age, gender, race/ethnicity, undergraduate GPA, undergraduate education (BSN or RN-BSN level) were examined as predictors of persistence in the two online graduate nursing programs. In this study, undergraduate GPA emerged as a predictor of persistence to graduation. It is evident that there are other significant factors that affect persistence that have yet to be determined. By identifying students' characteristics of persistence, strategies can be developed to enhance success in online graduate nursing programs.

This book was released on 2018 with total page 101 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Applying the post-positivistic framework of Thomas Kuhn, the purpose of this dissertation is to demonstrate and explore the educational advancement of associate degree nurses. Community colleges in the United States make quality and affordable higher education accessible to individuals who may not otherwise pursue it. While these institutions attract diverse and talented learners, community colleges make rewarding and life-altering careers a reality for many. For associate degree nurses, this educational opportunity serves as a strong foundation upon which to build a meaningful career. Increased emphasis on the educational advancement of associate degree nurses began with the 2010 Institute of Medicine report on the future of nursing. In order to reach the national goal recommended in the report that 80% of registered nurses be prepared at the minimum of the baccalaureate by 2020, a paradigm shift representing the acceptance of multiple pathways to the baccalaureate needs to occur. Community college faculty and leadership have consistently encouraged the educational advancement of graduates; however, pathways for associate degree nurses to advance educationally have not always been clear and achievable. This dissertation begins with a description of the experiences of associate degree nurses who have attained a baccalaureate degree, continues with an initial analysis of a database designed to track the rate and frequency of the educational advancement of associate degree nurses, and concludes with an analysis of related demographic and academic variables. Adoption of strategies presented here can assist associate degree programs to become more aware of the educational advancement of graduates. In addition, the collection and analysis of these data by associate degree programs can demonstrate their commitment to the goal of the profession to reach 80% baccalaureate preparation by 2020, while supporting the sustainability of the associate degree as an entry level to practice as a registered nurse. Increased awareness of the patterns of educational advancement by associate degree nurses can assist related programmatic planning and policy development.

This book was released on 2018 with total page 125 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the late 1990s the nursing field has experienced increased demand for RN’s as well as a number of internal and external factors that have worsened this problem. College admissions officers have struggled to identify those students who are most likely to persist in an associate degree nursing (ADN) program. Estimates of programmatic attrition vary, but fall somewhere between 25-50%. A great deal of research has been expended in an attempt to determine which preadmission variables are most likely to indicate programmatic success. Unfortunately, no “best set” of admissions variables has been identified. The purpose of this research was to identify cognitive and noncognitive predictors of success in an ADN program. These variables can then be used by nursing program administrators to help identify students during the admissions phase who are most likely to persist through the first term and potentially to degree completion. Bloom’s theory of school learning serves as the theoretical framework for this research. The participants in this study were 188 students (summer and fall cohorts) in the Associate of Science in Nursing (ASN) program at a large state college in the southeastern region of the United States. The research design was a quantitative, non-experimental, correlational design to predict the relationship between four input predictor variables and one criterion variable. The Health Education Systems Inc A2 assessment (HESI A2) and the Grit-S Scale were used to measure these input variables. Binary regression was used to analyze the resulting data. This research is critical in addressing nursing shortfalls, a pressing real world problem facing society at large, nursing in general, and college admissions departments for ADN programs in particular.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The current national shortage of practicing registered nurses is exacerbated by an accompanying shortage of nurse educators, which limits program enrollments in Associate Degree Nursing (ADN) programs. Relatively low available enrollment in nursing programs is coupled with a national first year retention rate of 64% (National League for Nursing Accrediting Commission [NLNAC], 2008), which leaves ADN educational leaders struggling to find improved ways to increase graduation rates through better identification of qualified applicants. This exploratory, action research study examined commonly used ADN admission criteria in order to identify those indicators which best predict students' first semester success at a small private northeastern United States college. The predictive ability of common ADN admission variables (TEAS scores in the areas of math, science, and English; overall TEAS score; age; gender; and math, science, and English course grades) was determined with regard to student success outcome variables (medication/math exam grade, Nurse Fundamental course grade, Nurse Health Assessment course grade, and Assessment Technology Institute [ATI] Nursing I Fundamental Content Mastery Series scores). Using an exploratory, action research design, data from 120 freshman nursing students were examined to assess the relative contributions of each of the predictor variables on forecasting students' first semester success. The study's methodology involved a simple correlation and regression analysis of the data. Selected Admission's variables were shown to be correlated to certain outcome variables. These Admission's variables included, the TEAS overall score, the last science course grade on admission (ACGs), the TEAS score in English, and the student's last earned English course on admission (ACGe). Only the TEAS total score showed correlation with success over a broad range of success score, i.e. ATIs, FUNg, and HAg. Overall, it was concluded that the ability of the admission variables to predict a specific score on student outcome assessment was weak. As a result of this study, the college's Admission office and nursing department will use the information to modify Admission's policies, develop pre-admission workshops, and continue to implement program initiatives to further support student success in an ADN nursing program. Further studies are warranted in order to assist other colleges in determining the level of academic qualifications most desirable in selecting students capable of success in their ADN nursing program.
