SAS#4 Flashcards
The three determinants of learning that require assessment are:
• THE NEEDS OF THE LEARNER
• THE STATE OF READINESS TO LEARN
• THE PREFERRED LEARNING STYLES FOR PROCESSING INFORMATION
Is one of the most essential interventions that a nurse performs. She/he must both identify the information of learners need and consider their readiness to learn and their styles of learning
THE ROLE OF EDUCATING OTHERS
Is the single most important person in the education process
THE LEARNER
Vital in giving support, encouragement, and direction during the process of learning
EDUCATOR
Often learning needs will be discovered during _________ that take place with other healthcare team members involved in the care of the client, and between the nurse and the patient or his or her family
INFORMAL CONVERSATIONS
The nurse asks the learner direct and often predetermined questions to gather information about learning needs
STRUCTURED INTERVIEWS
Involve getting together a small group number (4 to 12) of potential learners, to determine areas of education need by using group discussion Identify points of view or knowledge about a certain topic
FOCUS GROUPS
The learners written responses to questions about learning needs can be obtained by _____________.
Checklist are one of the most common forms of questionnaires
SELF ADMINISTERED QUESTIONNAIRES
Written _______ given before teaching is planned can help Identify the knowledge level of the potential learner regarding a particular subject and assist in identifying specific needs of the learner
TESTS
written description of what is required to effectively carry out job responsibilities is a source to determine potential learning needs of staff
WRITTEN JOB DESCRIPTION
Many time staff will be asked for ideas for educational programs, which refer like what they perceive as needs, when doing a formalized educational program, educator must verify that these requests are congruent with the needs of other staff members
FORMAL AND INFORMAL REQUEST
Trends found in incident reports indicating safety violations or errors in procedures are source for establishing learning needs of staff that education could adequately addressed
QUALITY ASSURANCE REPORTS
Help identify trends in practice
CHART AUDITS
A thorough knowledge of hospital professional and healthcare requirements helps to identify possible learning needs of staff.
it is important for an educator to monitor new rules of practice that may arise from changes occurring within an institution or external to the organization that have implications for the delivery of care
RULES AND REGULATION
Self-directed analysis
SELF ANALYSIS
Analysis on the gap in knowledge needs to be acquired
GAP ANALYSIS
Measures of ability
Complexity of task
Environmental effects
Health status
Gender
PHYSICAL READINESS
In learning to perform a skill the nurse educator must take into account the difficulty level of the subject or task to be mastered by the learner
COMPLEXITY OF TASK
An environment conducive to learning will help to keep the learners attention and stimulate interest in learning
ENVIRONMENTAL EFFECTS
Assessment of the learners __________ is important to determine the amount of energy available as well as present comfort level - both of these factors heavily influence one’s readiness to learn
HEALTHY STATUS
Anxiety level
Support system
Motivation
Risk taking behavior
Frame of mind
Developmental stage
EMOTIONAL READINESS
Beddoe (1999) scribes of the unique opportunity that nurses have to provide emotional support to patients.
She labels this opportunity as the “reachable moment” the time when a nurse truly connect with clients by directly meeting them on mutual terms
SUPPORT SYSTEM
Interest on the part of the learner to achieve a task also lead to more meaningful teaching learning experiences
MOTIVATION
Taking risk in intrinsic in activities people perform daily.
many activities are done without thinking about the outcome
RISK TAKING BEHAVIOR
Refers to the learners past experiences with learning
Level of aspiration
Past coping mechanisms
Cultural background
Focus of control
EXPERIMENTAL READINESS
Patients are internally motivated to learn.
They are ready to learn when they feel a need to know about something.
This drive to learn comes from within the learner. Usually this type of learner will indicate a need to know by asking questions
INTERNAL LOCUS OF CONTROL
They are externally motivated
Then someone other than themselves was encouraged a feeling of wanting to know something.
the responsibility often falls on the educators shoulders to motivate them to want to learn
EXTERNAL LOCUS OF CONTROL
Present knowledge base
Cognitive ability
Learning disabilities learning styles
Refers to the learners present knowledge base the level of learning capability in the preferred style of learning
KNOWLEDGE READINESS
preferred styles of learning exist and assessing how someone learns best will help to select teaching approaches accordingly.
LEARNING STYLES
Certain learning or actor istic our biological whereas others are sociologically derive
No learning style is inherently better or worse than another
LEARNING STYLE PRINCIPLES A
Kolb learning style inventory
4 MAT system
Gardner’s eight types of intelligence
Vark learning styles
LEARNING STYLE MODELS AND INSTRUMENTS (cont’d)
Vocal and analytical
LEFT HEMISPHERE
Combining both sides of the brain
WHOLE BRAIN
develop an instrument that would assist educators in identifying those characteristics that allow individuals to learn in different ways
RITA AND KENNETH DUNN
_________inventory is a self-reporting instrument that is widely used in the identification of how individuals prefer to function learn concentrate and perform in their educational activities.
THE DUNN AND DUNN LEARNING STYLE INVENTORY
Environmental elements
Emotional elements
Sociological patterns
Physical elements
Psychological elements
DUNN’S LEARNING STYLE OPTIONS
Are energized by people enjoy a variety of task, a quick pace, and are good at multitasking
EXTROVERTS
Often like working done or in small groups, preferable deliberate pace, and like to focus one task at a time
INTROVERTS
A realistic people who like to focus on the facts and details.
they apply commonsense and past experience to find practical solutions to problems
SENSORS
Prefer to focus on possibilities and the big picture, easily see patterns, value innovation and seek creative solutions to problems
INTUITIVES
Tend to be organized and prepared, like to make and stick to plants and are comfortable following most rules
JUDGERS
Refer to keep their options open, like to be able to act is spontaneously and like be flexible with making club
PERCEIVERS
Known as the cycle of learning believes that the learner is not a blank.
According to _______learning is a continuous process which is a cumulative result of previous or past experiences in editing and interaction with environment
KOLB’S MODEL
Learning from actual experience
CONCRETE EXPERIENCE
Learning by observing others
REFLECTIVE OBSERVATION
Creating theories to explain what is seen
ABSTRACT CONCEPTUALIZATION
Using theories to solve problems
ACTIVE EXPERIMENTATION
KOLB IDENTIFY 4 LEARNING STYLES l
Learns by AC & AE
Good at decision making problem solving and papers dealing with technical work than interpersonal problems; uses deductive reasoning facts and data and has skills for technology and specialized careers
CONVERGER
Stresses CE & RO
People and feeling oriented and likes to work in groups
nurse best through group discussions and brainstorming sessions; considers different perspectives and point of view when looking at a concrete situation or experience
DIVERGER
Relies heavily on CE & AE
Impatient with other people
Enjoys role-playing gaming and computer simulations
these are the most challenging the educators because they learn best through new and exciting learning experiences and are not afraid of taking risk which may sometimes endangered or safety
ACCOMODATOR
Emphasize AC & RO
More concerned with abstract ideas that people
Learn best through lectures
ASSIMILATOR
Combination of kolb’s model with right left brain research
