Author Description

Nursing Research Online consists of 14 ready-to-use, interactive modules corresponding to each chapter in the text, along with a collection of additional learning activities that faculty can use to supplement the core modules. Ready-to-use modules feature a rich variety of engaging examples - from the nursing literature, nursing practice, and everyday life - to help students grasp key concepts. Concise lessons help students process information in manageable blocks. Modules each include integrated Learning Activities, Narrated Algorithms, and a built-in Audio Glossary, to help students master nursing research. Unique Closer Look boxes expand on module content for more motivated students and bring additional insights that help all students understand difficult concepts. Reading Assignments with Focus Questions help students relate the course material to the textbook content, and focus their reading accordingly. Module Summary features conclude each module and ensure content mastery. Supplemental Resources allow the instructor to expand on and customize the course to meet the needs of their particular program: 42 Discussion Questions - three for each chapter in the textbook - allow faculty to simulate classroom discussion in an online environment. 5 Critiquing Activities challenge students to apply their critiquing skills to both qualitative and quantitative research articles. A Research Article Library supplements the integrated research examples and allows faculty to create customized critiquing assignments. Narrated Algorithms from the modules are available as freestanding assets to help illustrate the various types of research designs in a friendly and engaging manner. WebLinks, Image Collection, and Test Bank from the Burns & Grove Evolve website are all incorporated into the course to complement the course resources and allow the instructor maximum flexibility. </ul
