“How To’s”

Steps that might work for you and your nursing program

How to: Part I

•

PAIR faculty members

– Who teach the same courses •

Determine for each course outcome

– How the course outcome relates to the program outcomes – Determine the learning activities for the outcome and – Determine the measurements used for the outcome • See template next slide

How to: Part I

Course Template

How to: Part II Round Robin

•

Arrange tables by integrating concepts

– Attach template to tables by integrating concepts •

Faculty pairs rotate through the stations.

– Faculty identify the course outcomes that fulfill competencies listed

Context and Environment Relationship Centered Care 3 Apprenticeships for each: Knowledge Practice Ethical Comportment Teamwork Knowledge and Science Personal Professional Growth Quality and Safety

Part III: Compilation

• Compile all information on one document

Part IV: Program Learner Outcomes

• Complete the Program Learner Outcomes Template – in a round robin – similar to the Integrating Concepts Round Robin

Human Flourishing Spirit of Inquiry

Nursing Practice

Professional Identify Nursing Judgment

Part V: Identify Apprenticeships Missing Course Outcomes

• Identify apprenticeships that lack course outcomes.

– Develop new course outcomes as needed • Identify the new outcomes needed – Evaluate BOTH the Apprenticeships AND the Learner Outcomes Templates – Be careful of Additive curriculum » (May need to take something out of your curriculum) • Develop learning activities for each • Develop outcome measures for each
