Will be conducting a 3-hour newborn assessment lab for my nursing students. Really want to pick your brains for any good suggestions on livening this up and making it a great learning experience. If you know of any good resource material or internet sites, too. Thanks for your help!!!:kiss

Do you know anyone with a newborn who would allow you to do a demo exam for your students? Nothing like the real thing!

That's a very good idea. Hmmm....

Vicky,

We must be posting at the same time. I just want to let you know that I am very impressed by the amount of time and effort you are putting into preparing your lessons. Are you a new instructor? I sure wish I'd had an instructor who had your ambition in preparing these topics, most of which were just glossed over in my BSN program. I'd like to PM you later, if that's OK. I have some questions about teaching.

Thanks for the compliment, Jolie. I would love you to PM me. Yes I am a new instructor (just now a year). I don't know what I would do without my AllNurses buddies!
