Implementing Inquiry-Based Learning in Nursing

by Dankay Cleverly (Author)

Synopsis

If you want to introduce Inquiry-Based Learning (IBL) into your curriculum but are not sure how to go about it, this book will set you on the right track. In this text the author shares the experience of leading a project to implement IBL as a whole integrated pre-registration curriculum and provides a blueprint for successful implementation.

The practicalities of implementing IBL can be a daunting prospect. Using a wealth of examples, relevant theories, models and research, this book takes the reader through the logistics of every stage of implementation. It provides the necessary theoretical and research perspectives and describes the detail how to manage the project stage by stage, covering planning, implementation, evaluation and change management. In addition, it looks at the operational practicalities and describes eight subprojects: staff development; communication systems; the classroom compass; practice experience; documentation; electronic' library and media resources, as well as reviewing the post implementation situation.

Whether you are new to or already familiar with Inquiry-Based Learning or simply need some practical guidelines, this book will provide an indispensable source of reference.

Media Reviews
'To date little has been written about this approach and even less has been written about the process of implementing this new model of education Dankay Cleverly has now provided a very readable and useful text on just that topic. Her book will be a valuable resource to anyone interested in inquiry-based learning, as it provides a thorough description of IBL and the theoretical perspectives underpinning it. It also gives very good detail about the process of implementation that could easily be transferred to any setting.' - Dr Elizabeth Rideout, Coordinator CHS Nursing Programme, McMaster University, Ontario, Canada 'This book is... very timely Nursing/health and social care educators will find it interesting and very useful.' - Professor Sally Glen, Dean, St Bartholomew School of Nursing and Midwifery, City University, UK
