Faculty’s new go-to guide
A Practical Guide for Nurse Practitioner Faculty Using Simulation in Competency-Based Education, by Pamela R. Jeffries and Pamela Slaven-Lee, supports nurse practitioner faculty as they learn new pedagogy and teaching strategies for clinical simulations. The Wolters Kluwer title examines simulation design, development, and implementation for nurse practitioner and other graduate-level nursing programs.
“Clinical simulations have become commonplace in nursing programs across the country, but as the technology continues to advance, it is important that schools and universities understand the best way to bring both students and faculty together to improve competency-based outcomes,” commented Jeffries, Dean of Vanderbilt University School of Nursing, and a trailblazer in nursing simulation. “It is a pleasure to publish this book and collaborate with some of the leading minds in nursing education to make these resources available. Clinical simulation serves as a vital approach to creating student-centered, experiential learning that engages and prepares the graduate for real-world practice.”
