To promote student-centered learning, a course council was established in a beginning undergraduate nursing course. A student representative was selected by peers to attend a monthly course council meeting with faculty. Representatives were asked to query classmates in their section of eight students regarding opinions, questions, and concerns about the course and then bring those views to the council. In this monthly, small group, open dialogue setting, students spoke freely about experiences in the classroom, laboratory, and clinical settings. The stage was set for reflection, problem solving, and decision making involving students and faculty. Student input led to meaningful course changes, provided opportunities for students to learn from one another, and fostered critical thinking and professional responsibility. The course council approach was successful and has been expanded to include other nursing courses.
为了促进以学生为中心的学习，在一门基础本科护理课程中成立了课程委员会。通过同侪选举，一名学生代表被选中每月与教师一起参加课程委员会会议。代表们被要求询问他们所在的 8 名学生小组对课程的意见、问题和关注，然后将这些观点带到委员会。在这个每月一次的小组、开放对话的环境中，学生们自由地谈论课堂、实验室和临床环境中的体验。为学生和教师的反思、解决问题和决策创造了条件。学生的投入带来了有意义的课程变革，为学生相互学习提供了机会，并培养了批判性思维和专业责任感。课程委员会的方法取得了成功，并已扩展到其他护理课程。
