Is your ability to Critically Think in healthcare proving to be more of a challenge than you anticipated? Try the Layered Learning’s approach. These interactive programs are designed to engage individuals, study groups, post-conferences and enhance many other learning situations.
The thought provoking scenarios are a grouping of conversation starters that promote open communication among students and faculty. Layered Learning programs are designed to be easily used by everyone. The programs include excises in Prioritization, Delegation, Information Collection, Discussion and Collaboration.
Looking for consistency for an entire clinical course? Using this tool each clinical group will have a consistent base of situations and discuss potential answers to take to their next level of learning.
Use the critical thinking scenarios when you are out of ideas but not out of time. They can be used for clinical make-up, in class or as remediation in the office.
The cards allow the educator to evaluate the student’s understanding of nursing concepts. Give students a chance to correct one another and exhaust their thoughts. The students will likely show you where there are gaps in knowledge.
