9780826109989: Fast Facts for Curriculum Development in Nursing: How to Develop & Evaluate Educational Programs in a Nutshell

Synopsis

This new addition to the Fast Facts series is a pithy guide for novice nurse educators to the development, revision, and evaluation of programs and curricula that meet the standard requirements of the National Council of State Boards of Nursing, the NLNAC, and CCNE.

Applying the concepts and principles of Systems Theory, the guide moves through the development process to include evaluation procedures where decisions are based on data. It addresses the common definitions of curriculum, how to design a curriculum, and how to design courses in accordance with the organising elements of the program. The guide covers the purposes and development of a mission statement and of a program philosophy, as well as how to select an organisational framework. Curriculum implementation and faculty development requirements are also explored, in addition to educational and program outcomes and their evaluation. Organised for quick access and ease of use, each chapter defines key terms, summarises important points, and lists resources for additional study.
