Book The Impact of High Fidelity Simulated Clinical Experiences on Development of Clinical Reasoning Skills in Nursing Students

Download or read book The Impact of High Fidelity Simulated Clinical Experiences on Development of Clinical Reasoning Skills in Nursing Students written by Tracy K. Lopez and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 362 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nursing programs are increasingly facing issues with access to appropriate clinical sites, access to properly credentialed nursing faculty, and concerns regarding graduates readiness to practice safely. These issues have led to increased use of high fidelity simulation (HFS) experiences to replace traditional clinical rotations (Benner, Sutphen, Leonard & Day, 2010; Lasater, 2007a; Orsolini-Hain & Malone, 2007). Previous research has shown that traditional clinical rotations are instrumental in development of clinical reasoning skills and HFS experiences are valuable in developing technical skills. However, it does not provide insight into the impact of HFS experiences on development of clinical reasoning skills (Lapkin, Levett-Jones, Bellchambers & Fernandez, 2010). The purpose of this quasi-experimental pilot study was to determine the relationship between HFS clinical experiences and development of clinical reasoning skills in nursing students. Findings will influence the use of HFS to replace traditional clinical experiences and provide a foundation for future research on the efficacy of HFS in development of clinical reasoning skills. Analysis of data showed that there was no significant statistical difference in development of clinical reasoning skills between prelicensure nursing students attending traditional clinical experiences and those participating in simulated clinical experiences.

Book Creativity and Giftedness

Download or read book Creativity and Giftedness written by Roza Leikin and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-08-24 with total page 261 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume provides readers with a broad view on the variety of issues related to the educational research and practices in the field of Creativity in Mathematics and Mathematical Giftedness. The book explores (a) the relationship between creativity and giftedness; (b) empirical work with high ability (or gifted) students in the classroom and its implications for teaching mathematics; (c) interdisciplinary work which views creativity as a complex phenomena that cannot be understood from within the borders of disciplines, i.e., to present research and theorists from disciplines such as neuroscience and complexity theory; and (d) findings from psychology that pertain the creatively gifted students. As a whole, this volume brings together perspectives from mathematics educators, psychologists, neuroscientists, and teachers to present a collection of empirical, theoretical and philosophical works that address the complexity of mathematical creativity and giftedness, its origins, nature, nurture and ways forward. In keeping with the spirit of the series, the anthology substantially builds on previous ZDM volumes on interdisciplinarity (2009), creativity and giftedness (2013).

Book The Effect of the Developing Nurses  Thinking Model on Clinical Judgment in Nursing Students

Download or read book The Effect of the Developing Nurses Thinking Model on Clinical Judgment in Nursing Students written by Kristie Faith Douglass and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Critical thinking and clinical judgment are essential competencies for professional nursing practice. These abilities are used continually, enabling nurses to provide safe nursing care to increasingly complex patients in a variety of healthcare settings. The challenge that faces baccalaureate nursing programs as they prepare nursing students to function competently upon graduation, is how best to facilitate the development of these skills in our students. The purpose of this capstone project was to test the effect of the middle range theory of the Developing Nurses' Thinking (DNT) Model on clinical judgment in nursing students. Tanner's Clinical Judgment Model formed the conceptual framework for this project. An experimental, pretest/posttest study was conducted using a convenience sample of 44 senior students at one southeastern baccalaureate nursing program. Two clinical groups received the intervention in post conferences, while three groups served as the control group. Student clinical judgment was measured in high fidelity patient simulation, using the Lasater Clinical Judgment Rubric. Paired t-tests evaluated the differences between clinical judgment scores and an independent t-test was utilized to evaluate the difference between groups. Both groups showed statistically significant improvements on the posttest, but there was no statistically significant difference between groups. Therefore, the findings of this study did not support the use of the DNT Model to facilitate the development of clinical judgment in nursing students. However, small sample size and inadequate exposure to the intervention were likely contributors to these outcomes.

Book The Effect of Simulation on the Development of Clinical Judgment in Second Degree Nursing Students

Download or read book The Effect of Simulation on the Development of Clinical Judgment in Second Degree Nursing Students written by Mary Ellen Rush and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nurses are challenged to use critical thinking skills and make sound clinical judgment in achieving optimal patient outcomes and improving patient safety (Alfaro-LeFevre, 2017). Clinical judgment is the ability to interpret patient data, and develop appropriate and timely interventions (Bussard, 2018). The effect of simulation on the development of clinical judgment has been investigated extensively in traditional nursing students. The rapid development of second-degree nursing students to address the nursing shortage (Sedgwick, Kellet, & Kalischuck, 2014), requires further investigation of the effect of simulation on the development of clinical judgment in second-degree nursing students. Opportunities for simulation experiences promote the development of clinical judgment in second-degree nursing students (Mariani, Cantrell, Meakin, & Jenkinson, 2015). This study encompassed a regularly scheduled simulation experience for students enrolled in a gerontology course in a second-degree nursing program. The study used a cross sectional design and encompasses an educational preparation video and demographic survey prior to the simulation. The Lasater Clinical Judgment Rubric (Lasater, 2007) was used post debriefing and reflection to assess the effect of the simulation on the development of clinical judgment. Statistical analysis using SPSS software was used for data analysis, results, and understanding the implications for translating the evidence into practice.
