Scholarship Integration and Effective Care
Boyer's scholarship of integration "seeks to interpret, draw together, and bring new insight to a research study. It includes discovering patterns and making connections between nursing and other disciplines, which brings meaning to the original work. The actions of locating and using evidence-based practice guidelines are within the scholarship scope of integration" (Conrad & Pape, 2014). Conrad & Pape (2014) provide information on the current state of nurse educators, with knowledge that can be applied to a multidisciplinary approach to caring for pediatric asthma clients in a community In contrast, Maurana, Wolff, Beck, & Simpson (2001) review four evidence-based models in order to document and evaluate activities that are both scholarly and applicable to communities. These propose a new model, that can provide insight into the teaching and learning that comes with nursing education. Though it is an older article,...
For myself, it provides an appreciation of the journey of the nurse educator. As I grew up in a rural Midwestern farming community, this type of multidisciplinary collaboration and scholarship was a basic necessity. That was due to the lack of healthcare resources. The formal position of nurse educator was nonexistent at that time, and every nurse performed as an educator in the only 45-bed hospital in the entire county. Each nurse was required to function in all areas, with an eye toward grassroots networking for innovative solutions. As a psychiatric nurse, mental health is a vital community issue to me, as well. The stigma and fear around mental illness persists, even though there is much more education regarding it today. As nurse educators, we each can encourage nurses at all levels of practice to partake in NAMI's free training for healthcare professionals. That will help these nurses improve collaborative care on the clients' path to recovery. Through exposure to personal stories, participants can gain tools that increase their empathy and professional skills, which will also improve…

Education Richard Rodriguez and Mike Rose both write about their education. In "I Just Wanna Be Average," Mike Rose recounts his experience in Catholic school as an Italian-American from a working class family background. Because of a school error, he was placed in the vocational tract at school. The experience taught Rose a lot about the low expectations place on students, the lack of effective role models in the classroom, and
The United Kingdom (and Northern Ireland) used to provide free higher education to all native Brits, but contemporary economic realities have forced UK and Northern Ireland colleges and universities to charge up to the approximate equivalent of $6,000 annually to offset the enormous cost of education. Unlike Canada, Britain provides higher education at the same price for students from Continental European nations but charges students from other nations more
My past has shown my willingness to maximize the opportunities presented to me, and this scholarship will give me an opportunity I would not otherwise be afforded. I have in the past overcome obstacles. In classes which the subject has not come easily to me I have found extra help and spent extra time to do well. In particular, there was a math class in which the concepts seemed like a foreign language. Yet I
To adequately teach these skills requires little more than a commitment from the teacher or curriculum monitor. It is a matter of framing assignments in the appropriate manner -- instead of simply requiring a: Research Paper on an Aspect of Costa Rica, work in a preliminary annotated bibligoraphy section that requires the appropriate vetting and analysis of the sources; require several types of sources, and explain why. Above all,
This once more impedes with our goals of gaining professional formation. Also in terms of financial considerations, the economic agents often engage in processes of downsizing. These are understandable from an organizational standpoint, but they negatively impact the employees -- my generation more than the older generations. In this order of ideas, most of the companies which downsize their staff members apply the rule of LIFO -- last in, first
The knowledge and specialized skills thus acquired can serve to achieve my future goals in this field of study, and help me play an important part in society as a competent individual, involving me in matters of actual and practical interest. I believe that specialized education can thus greatly benefit me in my overall future professional achievements. It will consolidate my knowledge and experience so that these may be applied afterwards
