Clinical Nursing Education: Current Reflections was conceived as a
unique resource for seasoned and novice faculty as well as for graduate
students on the nurse educator track. The book aims to help the
profession re-imagine clinical education, historically, the essential
core of nursing education, and examine the impact of new models for
clinical education in an increasingly complex environment of health care
delivery. It also provides readers a variety of reflections on
simulation, performance evaluation, student experiences, and faculty
responsibilities related to these critical aspects of a nurse's
education.
The book grew out of the editors' experiences as part of the NLN's Task
Group on Clinical Education, Blue Ribbon Panel on Research in Nursing
Education, and Think Tank on Transforming Clinical Nursing Education.
