¶ … students who took multiple online NP courses had higher statistical odds of failing the test the first time around than students who only enrolled in one course at a time. There was no correlation between race, ethnicity, gender or age with regard to failure and statistical ratios. The significant variable identified in this study was the number of courses taken by a student at one time. Any number of online NP courses greater than 1 increased odds of testing failure. This is in line with the findings of Bambara et al. (2009) and Roblyer (2006) who identify increased course load level as a stress factor.
The findings for the multiple clinical course taking were reversed. Students who took one multiple clinical course as opposed to those who took two or more were at greater odds of failure. Again, there was no correlation between race, age, ethnicity or gender. Reasons for this could be that students felt pressure to achieve more and speed through courses so as to fill gaps in the industry more quickly but failed to take time to study and prepare. Research by Odeh (2014) and Taylor (2014) both show that in order for nurses to succeed in new areas, they...
Without such systems in place, the nurse is less likely to find support and follow-through. This same idea can be applied to student nurses enrolled in NP courses online. They may initially think they are prepared, but the reality may indicate that they are lacking in adequate supports. Likewise the study by Deary, Watson and Hogtson (2003) shows that nursing students can suffer from "stress, burnout and attrition" which could cause the students to fail by the conclusion of the term (p. 71). This indicates that students like nursing workers can be overwhelmed in practice and study.
Mean age statistically differed where those who took multiple clinical courses per quarter had a younger age than those who did not take multiple clinical courses per quarter. Race/ethnicity statistically differed where the pattern suggested that whites took lesser percentages of multiple clinical courses per quarter while African-Americans took greater percentages of multiple clinical courses per quarter. Specialty statistically differed where the pattern suggested that FNP took greater percentages of multiple clinical courses per quarter while AGACNP took lesser percentages…

Nursing Students Attitude Towards the Elderly: Literature Review The changing demographics in many of the populations in industrialized countries has changed the aggregate needs of the nursing workforce and this trend is expected to continue into the future as the population continues to age. One issue that has arisen is that the younger generation of nurses have demonstrated through various means that their preference for their nursing roles within organizations is
Curriculum Design Introduction As Terzioglu, Tuna and Duygulu (2013) state, “learning from experience is an important part of nursing education [and] using simulation as an innovative teaching strategy in nursing education” is an effective way to reinforce technique, principles, knowledge, skills and practice (p. 34). Simulation gives nursing students the opportunity to engage with real world dynamics in a controlled environment where they can receive immediate feedback following their active learning experience.
Title A well-written title serves two fundamental purposes in research. The first purpose of the title is to provide a “clear statement to the reader of what to expect,” and the second purpose is to “help someone searching for an article on your topic area to find your paper,” (“What Makes a Good Title?” 2013). A clever title might not serve either of these purposes, which is why authors like Rejno,
Nursing E-Learning The role of education is changing everyday as new technology, models and methods are introduced on a daily basis. As these transformations occur it essential for those within the nursing education fields are aware of the possible implications of these changes. Distance education, online learning and e-academics provide great advantages for individuals and organizations who can implement a program or model that is aligned with the overall organizational strategy
Evidence-based nursing practice allows nursing students into developing an understanding of evaluation methods for healthcare research and integrating their findings into practice for he improvement of their practice, education and management of nursing practice. It is a learning method, which introduces nursing students into the process of using evidence in their practice. The nursing practice and handling of patients demand the best practices from nurses (Williams, & Wilkins, 2008).
Accommodations for Disabled Nursing Student There are roughly 54 million Americans with some form of disabilities, and one-fifth of those 54 million people have run up against barriers to employment, access to healthcare and education (Pischke-Winn, et al., 2004). The nursing field has traditionally tried to welcome students with disabilities into nursing schools, and following the passage of federal laws regarding disabled people and employment there are legal requirements for employers
