Correlating Self-directed Learning Abilities to Lifelong Learning Orientation in Baccalaureate Nursing Students

Book Description
Healthcare professionals consider lifelong learning to be an element of professionalism within nursing practice and baccalaureate nursing programs have embodied lifelong learning attributes within program outcomes. The federal government has also called for higher education institutions to build more points of student assessment to evidence that program outcomes are being met throughout student learning experiences (Billings & Halstead, 2016). Careful attention to how program outcomes are measured and achieved is essential for prelicensure baccalaureate nursing programs and for their accrediting bodies. This quantitative, correlational research design examined the relationships between self-directed learning abilities and lifelong learning orientation in the prelicensure baccalaureate nursing student population. Through the use of a survey, lifelong learning orientation and self-directed learning abilities among the four domains of interpersonal communication, planning and implementing, self-monitoring, and learning motivation were examined. Results indicated strong positive correlations between self-directed learning abilities and lifelong learning orientation among prelicensure baccalaureate nursing students. Through the assessment of self-directed learning abilities of baccalaureate nursing students this research informs nurse educators regarding curricular implementation of teaching and learning strategies that may foster lifelong learning to evidence program outcomes. Recommendations for nurse educators regarding the implementation of teaching and learning strategies are provided for each domain within the curriculum to meet lifelong learning program outcomes.

Book Description
Undergraduate nursing students at a Midwestern community college struggled to understand and retain content presented in long lecture format courses. The Population, Intervention, Comparison, and Outcomes (PICO) for the program are as follows: P—Nursing students at a Midwestern community college in terms 1, 2, 4, and 5 of the LPN and ADN program; I—Use of guided practice as an active learning teaching strategy in the lab setting to enhance nursing student self-directed learning readiness in terms 1 and 4; C— Nursing students in term 2 and term 5 at a Midwestern community college who did not have a lab course that used guided practice; O— Increased student results on a self-directed learning readiness post-test questionnaire compared to the pre-test results. The PICO question was: "In Midwestern community college nursing students enrolled in current lab courses, does using guided practice as an active learning strategy during lab, develop better self-directed learning skills?

Book Description
The purpose of this study was to explore the relationship between experiential learning and self-directed learning readiness of bachelor's and master's level social work students. A quantitative design was utilized. The study consisted of 115 senior social work students and 70 master's level social work students (separated into three student groups) from a state university. Students participated in a one-semester field education component as part of their social work degree program. The research instrument utilized was the Self-Directed Learning Readiness Scale (SDLRS ) constructed by Guglielmino (1978). The SDLRS is a self-report questionnaire with 58 Likert scale items designed to measure the attitudes, values and abilities of learners relating to their readiness to engage in self-directed learning. A pretest, treatment, posttest design was utilized. Demographic data were collected with the pretest administration and level of satisfaction information was collected with the posttest administration. The bachelor's level social work students demonstrated statistically significant differences in the pre and posttest SDLRS scores while the master's level social work students' changes in readiness for self-directed learning were not significant. It is important to note that the master's level social work students spent only half the amount of hours in the field education as the bachelor's level students at the time of the posttest. Correlations between change score from pretest to posttest SDLRS with students' previous exposure to the field of social work, prior experiential learning in a social work program, their satisfaction with the experiential learning component, and demographic factors of gender, age, ethnicity, marital status, number of children, and number of years pursuing degree were not significant. The initial SDLRS scores of the bachelor's level students were found to be consistent with those of nursing students previously scored on the SDLRS . In the ANOVA of all groups, significant differences were not found with the four groups of social work students in their change scores of pretest and posttest SDLRS or their overall level of satisfaction with the field experience and overall level of satisfaction with the quality of the supervisor in the field experience. The internship did not demonstrate particular merit for improving readiness for self-directed learning except for the bachelor's level students. However, students were satisfied with the experience and felt it changed their perceptions of self and others.
