Abstract
The
purpose
of this
study
was to
develop
guidelines
for
specific
instructional
strategies
and
tactics
to be
used
by
instructors
at
St.
Clare's
Mercy
Hospital
School
of
Nursing
to
aid
in the
improvement
of
classroom
instruction.
--
The
literature
on
change
in
nursing
and in
nursing
education
indicated
that
nursing
students
have an
ever-increasing
body
of
knowledge
to
acquire
and that
nursing
education
must
change
to
meet
the
demands
of
society.
More
effective
means
of
providing
nursing
students
with the
knowledge
and
skills
they
require
are
constantly
being
sought.
--
An
evaluation
of the
instructional
setting
and
existing
instructional
practices
at the
school
of
Nursing
was
conducted
as an
initial
step.
It
was
anticipated
that this
evaluation
would
provide
useful
information
on
which
to
base
decisions
regarding
the
possible
need
for
improvement
in
instructional
procedures.
--
Naturalistic
methods
of
inquiry
were
employed
with
multiple
sources
used
to
obtain
information.
Data
gathered
through
classroom
observations
,
structured
and
unstructured
interviews
,
preview
of
media
, and
record
and
document
analysis
indicated
that the
number
and
variety
of
instructional
techniques
employed
were
limited
and that there were
implications
for the
use
of
additional
strategies.
This
suggested
that a
review
of
related
literature
should be
conducted.
--
The
literature
on
large-group
instructional
techniques
such
as the
lecture
,
discussion
,
lecture-discussion
, and
demonstration
and on the
use
of
computer-assisted
instruction
in
nursing
education
confirmed
a
need
for
specific
guidelines
for
instruction.
Charts
were
prepared
on the
rationale
behind
the
use
of
specific
strategies
and on the
procedures
to be
followed.
Guidelines
were
developed
for
tactics
to be
employed.
-
Recommendations
have been
made
for the
implementation
of the
guidelines
, and for the
provision
of
training
in
instructional
techniques.
It
is
also
recommended
that
possible
improvements
in the
instructional
setting
and the
implementation
of
computer-assisted
instruction
be
investigated.
