Abstract

Background

Supporting students to identify their values and beliefs helps to shape their professional identity. Faculty can facilitate activities to help students with this process.

Aim

Faculty developed a new teaching activity, the Nursing Philosophy Illustration, to allow for creative expression of the student’s philosophy.

Methods

Using the nursing metaparadigm as the framework, students completed a series of faculty-guided activities to help organize their thoughts and feelings to define their nursing philosophy. Students wrote detailed prompts for the AI generator tool to illustrate their philosophy and provided a brief recorded narration to describe how their values and beliefs will inform their future practice.

Results

Students demonstrated the development of their professional identity through illustration and storytelling. Students and faculty enjoyed the creativity of this assignment.

Conclusion

Finding ways to encourage students’ creative expression of their values and beliefs can be an effective teaching strategy.

塑造职业身份的新视角

支持学生识别自己的价值观和信仰有助于塑造他们的职业身份。教师可以组织一些活动来帮助学生完成这个过程。AimFaculty开发了一项新的教学活动，护理哲学插图，允许学生创造性地表达哲学。方法以护理元范式为框架，学生完成一系列教师指导的活动，帮助他们组织思想和感受，以定义他们的护理理念。学生们为人工智能生成器工具写了详细的提示，以说明他们的理念，并提供了一个简短的录音叙述，描述他们的价值观和信仰将如何影响他们未来的实践。结果学生透过插图及讲故事的方式，展示他们职业认同的发展。学生和教师都很喜欢这个作业的创造性。结论鼓励学生创造性地表达自己的价值观和信仰是一种有效的教学策略。
