| Abstract: |
Experts in nursing education, such as Benner, Sut-phen, Leonard, and Day (2010), as well as the Institute of Medicine report. The Future of Nursing (2011), agree that 21st-century nursing education must change. However, the focus is often on academic education rather than practice education. Today's nurses deserve exceptional practice education that is built on 21st-century learning principles, technologies, and methods as they pursue lifelong, behavior-forming learning. This requires four key shifts: (1) using synergistic, collaborative, learner-centered methods; (2) infusing technology into learning and teaching; (3) designing professional development rooted in instructional design best practices; and (4) performing comprehensive evaluations of professional development. This article explores the necessity for change and encourages nursing professional development specialists to boldly go where they have never gone before. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
