The reality, however, is that skill performance does not occur in isolation in the practice setting. Nurses demonstrate skills while functioning within several nursing roles. Following an examination of the relationship of educational outcomes focusing on critical thinking, communication ability, and therapeutic nursing interventions, faculty at a two-year associate degree nursing program formulated Critical Thinking Vignettes as a method of assessing student outcomes. Students role-play a nurse-client interaction using a case study prompt. Student performance outcomes in skills demonstration, communication, teaching, problem solving, critical thinking, identification of resources, and response to environmental cues are evaluated. Preliminary reliability and inter-rater reliability studies suggest that this method provides a controlled method of assessing nursing outcomes reflective of actual practice.

Nancy Diekelmann is advancing the science of nursing education by describing a new phenomenological pedagogy, Narrative Pedagogy, identified through interpretive research in nursing education. Narrative Pedagogy is an approach to reforming nursing education that is always site specific and not generalizable from school to school. However, the processes of Narrative Pedagogy are transferable and can be enacted in many contexts. This study describes the common experiences and shared meanings of teachers and students engaging in or enacting Narrative Pedagogy. Diekelmann gathered seven teachers and students in five schools of nursing in four midwestern states to share their experiences. Interpretive phenomenology was used to analyze the group interview. One of the findings identified during this analysis, Enacting Narrative Pedagogy, is explicated, and two themes, Decentering Skill Acquisition and Content and Attending to the Practices of Thinking, are described.</p>","PeriodicalId":79520,"journal":{"name":"Nursing and health care perspectives","volume":"22 5","pages":"252-9"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2001-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"25138017","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
