Edmunds Lecture Featuring Pre-eminent Nursing Educator Dr. Patricia Benner
Date:
Thursday, September 23, 2010 - 4:00pm - 6:30pm This lecture will present key findings and recommendations from the National Nursing Education Study recently released by the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching.

Dr. Benner, one of the nation’s preeminent nursing educators and director of the research project, will touch on the foundational concepts of curricular reform: unfolding case studies; teaching for a sense of salience; situated clinical coaching; pedagogies of formation; integrative classroom-clinical teaching; and an emphasis on clinical reasoning and clinical imagination.
