Nursing curriculum must include unique ways to enhance students' cultural sensitivity to ensure the provision of culturally competent care to our diverse populations. Academic community engagement (ACE) is a pedagogy used to teach course concepts through service.
This was a qualitative study analyzing nursing students' written reflective journals following their service at a Native American powwow using Lincoln and Guba's model. The purpose was to examine if the ACE experience influenced their development of cultural sensitivity.
Reflective journals of 34 first-semester nursing students, enrolled in a nursing specific culture course, were analyzed. Three themes were identified: (a) engagement, (b) cultural sensitivity, and (c) humility and altruism.
The development of self-awareness and the revelation by students of the importance of culturally sensitive care was a key finding supporting the use of ACE as a reliable teaching strategy in nursing education.
护理课程必须包括独特的方法来增强学生的文化敏感性,以确保向我们多样化的人群提供文化上合适的护理。学术社区参与(ACE)是一种通过服务来教授课程概念的教学法。
这是一项定性研究,通过林肯和古巴的模型,分析了护理学生在美洲原住民 Powwow 服务后的书面反思日志。目的是检验 ACE 经验是否影响了他们文化敏感性的发展。
对 34 名第一学期护理专业学生的护理专业文化课程的反思日志进行了分析。确定了三个主题:(a)参与,(b)文化敏感性,(c)谦逊和利他主义。
自我意识的发展以及学生对文化上敏感的护理的重要性的揭示,是支持 ACE 作为护理教育中可靠教学策略的关键发现。
