Radiologic technology education consists of three components--didactic, laboratory, and clinical. For effective education to take place and for each program to meet its goal of preparing practitioners who have a firm theoretical foundation and are proficient technologically in radiologic technology, the three components must be integrated. Integration facilitates the transfer of theoretical and practical knowledge into the intellectual, psychomotor, and affective skills necessary for patient care. The totality of the integrated educational experience makes the competent professional. Integration of the educational components is best achieved by a systematic approach to curriculum development. The steps in the curriculum development process consist of (1) the formulation of a philosophy; (2) the establishment of competencies; (3) the identification of resources; (4) the development and sequencing of courses; (5) the identification of teaching strategies; and (6) evaluation. When the clinical component of the educational program is weighted appropriately and well-integrated into a systematic process of curriculum development, student learning is maximized and graduate professional performance is enhanced.
放射技术教育由三个部分组成——理论教学、实验室教学和临床教学。为了实现有效的教育,并使每个项目达到其培养目标,即培养出具有坚实理论基础且在放射技术方面技术熟练的从业者,这三个部分必须相互融合。融合有助于将理论和实践知识转化为患者护理所需的智力、心理运动和情感技能。综合教育体验的整体塑造了合格的专业人员。教育各组成部分的融合最好通过系统的课程开发方法来实现。课程开发过程中的步骤包括:(1)制定教育理念;(2)确定能力要求;(3)确定资源;(4)课程的开发与排序;(5)确定教学策略;以及(6)评估。当教育项目的临床部分得到适当加权并很好地融入系统的课程开发过程时,学生的学习效果将达到最大化,毕业生的专业表现也会得到提升。
