  The first and second editions of this book established itself as a successful and accessible guide to the important teaching roles which nurses, midwives and health visitors fulfil. Since its publication, there have been far-reaching changes in both nurse education and practice, and the second edition has been revised extensively to reflect these changes. This edition retains the relevance to nursing practice and user-friendly approach which was valued by practitioners. It has been designed to explore the whole process of teaching and learning and how you can use it in your practice, whether with students, patients or other health care professionals. Activities help you reflect on your experience and relate the ideas to your own practice. Each chapter starts with a clear list of learning objectives and ends with a glossary of terms as well as annotated further reading and extensive references. The third edition will be fully updated according to latest developments adding material suitable for physiotherapists.

  The second edition has been completely updated and revised but retains the user-friendly approach and practical focus of the first edition. However, both nurse education and practice have developed considerably since the publication of the first edition, and the new edition has been radically restructured to cover relevant topics. Key themes emphasised in this edition include reflection, APL/APEL, mentorship, preceptorship, clinical supervision, and evaluation. This text enables practitioners to feel confident and competent in the variety of teaching roles they fulfil, exploring all the component parts of teaching and learning skills. Using practice-relevant and thought provoking activities, it is a book which helps the reader to 'know how' rather than simply 'know what'. Each chapter also includes key terms, a glossary of key terms as well as references and annotated further reading. Features: * Most up-to-date text in this area * Practice focus appeals to qualified staff * Uses an interactive approach * Written by a well-known author and contributors * New edition of respected text
