  Mentors for student nurses and newly registered nurses will welcome the fourth edition of this trusted handbook on how to teach others: peers, students, patients and relatives. It is written in a user-friendly style, 'talking through' strategies with the reader. This is a practical 'How to' guide, rather than an academic treatise, with a much stronger focus on the use of competencies. The contents have been totally revised into chapters on: . How people learn . How to teach . How to use competencies in teaching . How to support learners . How to assess teaching & learning.

  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
