How to Teach Thinking
New nurses require well developed clinical reasoning skills in order to deliver safe, effective, and compassionate care. Preparing students for practice demands that academic and practice-based educators use transformative strategies to develop clinical reasoning skills. Good teaching is ‘knowing the content’ but great teaching guides the learner to ‘use the content’. This interactive workshop will highlight the known areas of risk as we transition our students through coursework into professional practice. You will have hands on experiences in 1) the use of the NLN Guide for Teaching Thinking to develop solid teaching and learning dialogue strategies; and 2) practice specific techniques with feedback from the experts.
