...Community Teaching Plan: Teaching Experience Paper Rebecca Byrd Grand Canyon University NRS-427V March 20, 2015 Jen Costello Community Teaching Plan: Teaching Experience Paper Community health nurses have the distinctive ability and knowledge to provide teaching on various health topics within the community. For this teaching experience, this writer chose a home health center which allowed this writer to gather a group of patients 65 years and older, who have been diagnosed with CHF and teach them about heart failure management and how to prevent hospital readmissions. Congestive heart failure is an illness that effects millions each year and with proper management, individuals can still lead a productive life. Prior to the teaching presentation, a community teaching work plan proposal was developed which helped create an outline for the teaching lesson. This paper will review the teaching plan, the epidemiological rational related to CHF, evaluate the teaching experience, how the community responded, and what the strengths of the teaching plan were and areas that need improvement. Summary of teaching plan Teaching about congestive heart failure management and how to prevent returning to the hospital for complications related to CHF, is an important topic to discuss and educate the community about, especially the elderly. The teaching plan developed by this writer estimated the teaching time to last 30 minutes and would take place at Victory Home Care. Between...

...Academic Finance as a Career: The Good, The Bad, and the Not-So-Pretty Don Chance James C. Flores Endowed Chair of MBA Studies Louisiana State University Current version: January 4, 2011 (Original version: November 19, 2007) Most undergraduate and masters students in finance (MS and MBA) are preparing for a career in the world of finance. Oftentimes, jobs in finance have titles like financial analyst, credit analyst, and assistant treasurer, with the possibilities of someday becoming a vice president of finance, chief financial officer, treasurer or some other high-ranking position of responsibility. Finance is an important field to study because it deals with the management of money, a subject of central concern to every business, government agency, or nonprofit organization, and indeed every individual. Knowing how the financial world operates, the characteristics of securities, and how investment decisions should be made serves one well for many career paths. The study of finance also helps to prepare a person to manage his or her own money and increase the likelihood of accruing significant wealth over time through solid principles of investing. Few students consider another finance-related career option: becoming an academic in finance. Most students know little about this career choice. Their experiences with finance academics are typically limited to their familiarity with classes taken from their professors. But there is a lot more to it than this. And it is probably...

...Academic Paper on Curriculum Development Asghar Khan Nursing Education Ms. Nasreen Ghani July 04, 2014. The subject of Leadership and Management plays a key role in the development of nursing profession all over the world. Nurses’ leaders empower themselves and others to achieve their professional goals. Nursing leaders from all level as a student to the chief executive are in key positions to participate in decision making which ultimately affect the patients’ care and the image of nursing profession. It means that nurses at all level have the opportunity to exhibit their leadership and management skills at practice area and in the educational areas. Although management and leadership can overlap and you must have both sets of skills to be effective, management is more concerned with accomplishing more specific tasks, leadership is broader concept (Hersey, Blachard, & Jonson, 2008). Keeping in view the current status, the nurses’ community in Pakistan needs to have efficient leadership and management skills. For this reason nursing student should have all the required educational knowledge of leadership and management so that they participate in critical decision making. This is the reason that I have selected the subject of Leadership and Management for critique. Higher Education Commission(HEC) has allocated 4 credits to the course of Leadership and Management, 2 credits for theory and 2 for clinical, 2 credit is sufficient for theory because students at this...

...of Educational Sciences, 2011, 3(2), 411-423 www.iojes.net Pedagogical Competences – The Key to Efficient Education Andreia Irina SUCIU1 and Liliana MÂŢĂ21 Abstract The aim of our study is to provide a holistic representation of pedagogical skills closely related with current approaches in the field of professional competence for the teaching career. The paper covers three dimensions from the perspective of pedagogical competences. The first dimension is on the definition of pedagogical competence. The concept of pedagogical competence tends to be used with the meaning of minimum professional standard, often specified by law, which should raise a person in fulfilling a particular role of the teaching profession. The second dimension is based on representative taxonomies and highlights current pedagogical competences. The taxonomic classification, which we provide below only refers to the basic competences involved in the based role of a teacher to lead one of the educational activities with students. The third dimension is represented by a proposal in a narrow framework of a holistic representation of pedagogical competences for the teaching career. In the holistic view, we delineate two broad categories of pedagogical competences in accord with current approaches: general pedagogical competence and special pedagogical competence. After analyzing the pedagogical competences taxonomies, we obtained a comprehensive and actual representation. This representation allows a better...

...TOPIC: Reflective essay on the teaching session and facilitating workplace learning module. INTRODUCTION As a requirement for the pre-registration program in Nilai University, I have to take Facilitating Workplace learning module. The aim of this module is to enable me to become a better facilitator in the future. Having experiences from my previous clinical posting, I realized that nursing profession is not only about patient’s bedside care, but also workplace improvement by facilitating others for example students, colleagues and patient health teaching. Gopee (2011) defined facilitating learning is that the learner becomes aware that they should be the originator of their thinking, meaning to say the learner should take more control of their learning instead of passively receive information from the teacher. In addition, facilitating learning is usually form part of healthcare’s professional code, as mentioned in code of practice by Nursing Midwifery Council (2008) that registered nurse must be willing to share their experiences and skills for the good of their colleagues and must facilitate student and others to develop their competent. In order to fulfill this subject, I have two main parts to complete. First, a plan for facilitating a learning session applied all the relevant theories that have been lecturing, and the second part, I am going to write here is a reflective essay using Gibb’s (1988) reflective cycle on what I have learn from this module and my learning...

...Challenges and Rewards of Teaching/Final Exam Sheila Wright Liberty University INTRODUCTION I know that my first year of teaching will be filled with many challenges and many rewards; after all you cannot have roses without thorns. Just being new to the profession is going to be challenging. I am sure I will be anxious, nervous and extremely excited to finally have my own class. I am confident that the excellent education that I will receive will help me meet the challenges head on and appreciate the rewards as they come. In this essay I will discuss my top three challenges and rewards as it relates to the text and information presented in this course. CHALLENGES The multidimensional aspect of the classroom will be challenging. Having a large number of events occurring at the same time will make it difficult to decide what to deal with first. I will have to be prioritize the events as they unfold, therefore making snap decisions will become an everyday practice. This leads me to another challenge; classroom management. According our textbook from 1960 to 2004, polls identified classroom management as one of teachers’ most challenging problems and from 2004 to present, it ranked second behind only behind school funding. (D.Kauchak, P. Eggen 2011) Lastly, I think that language diversity is a challenge that I may be faced with. As we read in chapter 4 of our text- “immigration has brought increasing numbers of students with limited backgrounds...

...Ethics and ethical theories: a road map for teaching ethics in business schools Joan Fontrodona (IESE Business School, Spain), Manuel Guillén (University of Valencia, Spain), and Alfredo Rodríguez-Sedano (University of Navarre, Spain) Introduction A three-dimensional framework to explain ethical theories Ethical approaches of business firms Teaching ethics experiences using this framework Discussion of the teaching experiences Conclusions References 1 2 6 9 10 12 13 Introduction This paper tries to contribute, in some way, to the urgent need recently warned by Benedict XVI: “the university, for its part, must never lose sight of its particular calling to be a "universitas" in which the various disciplines, each in its own way, are seen as part of a greater unum. How urgent is the need to rediscover the unity of knowledge and to counter the tendency to fragmentation and lack of communicability that is all too often the case in our schools!”1 This seems to be a challenge for both, Catholic and non-Catholic universities. The purpose of this paper is to present a theoretical framework that helps to conceptualize ethics and to clarify the characteristics and limits of the different ethical theories. In other words, students without philosophical background will find here a synthetic “road map” of ethical approaches. This framework has been previously published in a book in Spain2. In this paper, authors will describe the model and discuss how it has been successfully tested...

...Practicum Experience Ginger VanDenBerg Ferris State University PRACTICUM EXPERIENCE Abstract 2 Orienting to the role of an academic nurse educator is a dynamic and challenging process. While engaging in this role with a preceptor, this novice nurse educator was guided by the core competencies developed by the National League for Nursing to teach Bachelor’s of Science in Nursing (BSN) degree students. Utilizing teaching, assessment, and evaluation strategies learned throughout the Master’s in Nursing Science program, this educator developed a didactic presentation on building cultural competence for Health Assessment nursing students, demonstrated and assisted in the development of essential skills to conduct an adult physical examination, and coordinated a perioperative clinical rotation for senior level nursing students. This practicum experience has played a pivotal role in strengthening this novice educator’s ability to assist students in identifying their learning needs, strengths, and limitations, while providing opportunity to experience the teaching-learning environment of the academic arena. Keywords: nursing students, learning, practicum learning, nurse educator PRACTICUM EXPERIENCE Nursing 740 Practicum Experience New nurse educators transforming into their new role often discover they are not as prepared as they would hope to be (Poindexter, 2008). Being an experienced or expert nurse is not sufficient to assume their new role as a nurse educator (Poindexter...

...Communication Channels Jessica Gray, Shayma Hashem, Bernita Jones HCS/320 July 18, 2012 Jeanette Godfrey Communication Channels Communication is the transmission of information, ideas, emotions, values, and attitudes. Communication channels are the modes or pathways in which organizations or parties may communicate (Ouellett, 2003).
