Book A Study of Baccalaureate Nursing Students Linking of Liberal Education with Their Professional Nursing Education

Download or read book A Study of Baccalaureate Nursing Students Linking of Liberal Education with Their Professional Nursing Education written by Nancy McCracken Rowe and published by . This book was released on 1996 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The education of nursing students has moved into institutions of higher learning from hospital based schools of nursing. This move has emphasized the integration of the liberal arts within the professional curriculum. It is within this context that professional nursing education is to prepare a liberally educated professional nurse. Nursing educators have been challenged to foster the integration of the liberal arts into the professional curriculum. This descriptive qualitative study investigates the baccalaureate nursing students' perspective of the contribution of liberal education within professional educations. A purposeful random sample of 21 senior nursing students enrolled in a nursing course focusing on chronic illness at a single-purpose baccalaureate college of nursing was used. The students were required, as an assignment for the course, to submit a weekly journal addressing the topic of which liberal education course supported their nursing practice and how that support occurred. These journals were the primary data source. The methodological approach was based on Bogdan and Biklen (1992), Lincoln and Guba (1985) and Patton (1990). The journals were analyzed with respect to which liberal education courses and which tenets of liberal education emerged as relevant. In addition, a schema and coding system was used to address how the linkage of liberal and professional educations occurred. Member-check interviews and peer debriefers were also used to increase trustworthiness of the data. The results of this study were that students linked liberal and professional educations in a variety of ways. The courses most commonly identified were behavioral and social sciences courses. The tenets most frequently identified were communication, critical thinking, and whole person. The students frequently described how their liberal education provided them insight about their clients. These courses/tenets also provided the students with the tools and understanding to examine themselves and their clients in broad comprehensive ways. This researcher concluded that if the tenets of liberal education are made explicit and fostered by faculty linking of liberal and professional education occurs.

Book Perceptions and Meanings of Liberal Education

Download or read book Perceptions and Meanings of Liberal Education written by Jacqueline Kayler DeBrew and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The purpose of this study was to understand (a) how BSN graduates perceive the relationship between their liberal education experiences in college and nursing practice; (b) how RN-BSN graduates and pre-licensure BSN graduates differ in these perceptions (c) what meanings practicing BSN nurses assign to their liberal education experiences in college; and, (d) how RN-BSN and pre-licensure BSN graduates differ in the meanings they assign to liberal education. Using content analysis, the researcher attempted to answer these questions through electronic questionnaires which gathered critical incidents and other data from participants who graduated from two types of nursing programs: RN-BSN and pre-licensure baccalaureate programs. Findings of this study demonstrated that both pre-licensure graduates and RN-BSN graduates perceive that their liberal educations are useful to nursing practice. Furthermore, the graduates from both types of programs believe that their liberal educations have led to both personal and professional gains. In addition, the graduates also held similar meanings about their liberal educations, which were overall positive. Findings of this study should help educators understand the value participants place on the bachelor's of science in nursing degree, which will in turn affect curricula and course development for nursing programs."--Abstract from author supplied metadata.
