Characteristics of Excellent Teachers of Nursing
-
From the Carnegie Foundation's Study of Nursing Education:
Excellent teachers:
- have a clear vision of what kind of nurse they would like to graduate
- place their students in a collaborative nursing role
- ask students to answer questions about what is at stake for the patient, what the patient is experiencing, and what the next step is for the patient
- highlight what is salient about a case or a situation and what is an appropriate response
- seamlessly integrate the three apprenticeships to teach how to be a nurse in terms of ethical comportment, knowledge of the humanities, sciences, and social sciences, and practice skills
- engage in dialogue with students to explore the student's thinking
