About me

I am a fairly new BSN instructor, needless to say, a little, okay let's be real, a LOT nervous about teaching nursing students. I feel their career is in my hands, yet I know that I will able to have successful students leave my classes. I have taught Allied Health for many years, but nursing is so different. What types of activities may I steal, from any of you, to help make my classes interesting, fun and challenging?

Interests

Skills

Using Active Learning to Enhance Critical Learning | Origin: EL113

Whether teaching online on f2f, education must be engaging to the point of making learning fun. When education is fun, it is easier for the student to remember what was taught. When they retain the information, they are more likely to teach it to someone else.

Modification of Traditional Classroom Activities | Origin: EL113

I plan on having my Pharmacology students divide into groups, put a brochure together about a drug class, and share that information with the other groups.

Limitations and Misconceptions | Origin: EL113

I would like to use role play in my classes. Another thought, divide the class into teams and race to write on the board things/concepts they learned from the last classtime. This will engage the student and they will be able to critically think about the concepts taught.
