Broadly accessible curriculum that equips Advanced Practice Nurses (APNs) with knowledge and skills to apply genomics in practice in the era of precision health is needed. Increased accessibility of genomics courses and updated curriculum will prepare APNs to be leaders in the precision health initiative.
Courses on genomics were redesigned using contemporary pedagogical approaches to online teaching. Content was based on the Essential Genetic and Genomic Competencies for Nurses with Graduate Degrees.
The number of students enrolled (n = 10) was comparable to previous years with greater breadth of representation across nursing practice specialty areas (53% vs. 20%). Prior to the first course, students reported agreement with meeting 8% (3/38) of the competencies. By completion of the 3rd course, students reported 100% (38/38) agreement with meeting the competencies.
Content on genomics sufficient to obtain self-perceived attainment of genomics competencies can be successfully delivered using contemporary pedagogical teaching approaches.
需要广泛提供课程,使高级执业护士(APN)具备知识和技能,以便在精准健康时代将基因组学应用于实践。增加基因组学课程的可及性和更新课程将使 APN 能够成为精准健康计划的领导者。
使用当代在线教学方法重新设计了基因组学课程。内容基于具有研究生学位的护士基本遗传和基因组学能力。
注册学生人数(n=10)与往年相当,护理实践专业领域的代表性更加广泛(53%对 20%)。在第一门课程之前,学生报告同意满足 8%(3/38)的能力。在完成第三门课程后,学生报告 100%(38/38)同意满足这些能力。
使用当代教学方法成功地提供了足以获得自我感知的基因组学能力的基因组学内容。
