Description
Teaching in Nursing: A Guide for Faculty, 7th Edition
Clinical expertise does not automatically make someone a teacher. Teaching in Nursing 7th edition has addressed that gap for twenty five years, and it sits on the desk of new faculty, experienced course leaders and staff development educators. Diane M. Billings and Judith A. Halstead bring the guidance up to date for nursing programmes that now run across classrooms, simulation labs, clinical placements and online platforms at the same time.
The book took first place in Nursing Education and Professional Development at the American Journal of Nursing Book of the Year Awards (2024) and was selected for Doody’s Core Titles in Education (2026).
Four components of nursing education
- Teaching and learning: learning theories put to work, diverse learning styles and preferences, active learning strategies, and the flipped classroom.
- Curriculum: designing, revising and mapping a nursing curriculum, test and item writing, clinical performance evaluation, programme evaluation and accreditation expectations.
- Technology-empowered learning: online and hybrid delivery, simulation, and the instructional technologies now standard in nursing programmes.
What the seventh edition adds
- A full-colour design that is easier to navigate and reference during course planning.
- Updated coverage of interprofessional education and interprofessional collaborative practice.
- Guidance reflecting continued redesign of healthcare systems and the practice environments students are prepared for.
- Current thinking on advances in technology and health information as they affect teaching.
Who this book is for
