  Title Advanced nursing practice through postgraduate education, part one Type Journal Article
  Year 2004 Publication Nursing Praxis in New Zealand Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 20 Issue 2 Pages (down) 46-55  
  Keywords Advanced nursing practice; Education; Professional development; Research  
  Abstract In New Zealand the clinically focused postgraduate papers and programmes, available through universities and polytechnics, are evaluated from an educational perspective but little evaluation of the implications for practice has been undertaken. This paper is Part One of a report on a study that sought to illuminate the impact of clinically focused postgraduate education on advancing nursing practice. Hermeneutic methodology provided a framework for analysing both the perspectives of nurses who had undergone such education and those who had directly employed and worked alongside these nurses. Emerging themes are described here. In a second article the findings will be discussed in relation to literature. Constraining factors will be identified and strategies designed to maximise the benefits of education for advancing nursing practice will be recommended.

  Title 'Back to the bedside': Graduate level education in critical care Type Journal Article
  Year 2008 Publication Nurse Education in Practice Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 8 Issue 1 Pages (down) 46-53  
  Keywords Nursing specialties; Nursing; Education; Curriculum  
  Abstract This paper explores the relationships within teaching, learning and practice development in critical care nursing and questions the popular assumption that 'post graduate (Master's level) education fits all'. The need for critical care nurses to apply advanced knowledge and technical skills to complex and dynamic practice situations necessitates the development of critical thinking and a problem-solving approach to clinical practice that can be fostered through education and experience. Discussion focuses on the successful development and implementation of graduate level education for critical care nurses in the South Island of New Zealand and how this development is challenging existing approaches to the provision and evaluation of formal critical care education in New Zealand.

  Title A critique of problem-based learning in nursing education and the contribution it can make toward beginning professional practice, part one Type Journal Article
  Year 2003 Publication Nursing Praxis in New Zealand Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 19 Issue 2 Pages (down) 41-51  
  Keywords Nursing; Education; Critical thinking; Problem solving; Nursing; Teaching methods  
  Abstract Within New Zealand nursing education there appears to be a widespread acceptance of problem-based learning and an assumption that the strategies it uses are unproblematic. A review of the literature however, reveals that problem-based learning has drawbacks that may inhibit the achievement of desired graduate outcomes. It seems timely for nurse educators to exercise caution in uncritically accepting problem-based learning approaches and using them as the predominant approach to teaching and learning. To this end, a two-part critique of this teaching and learning method is presented. Part one critiques the methods of problem-based learning, discussing self-directed learning, the group process, self-assessment, and content knowledge. Part two explores the philosophical underpinnings of problem-based learning, and the so-called 'fit' within nursing.

  Title A critique of problem-based learning in nursing education and the contribution it can make toward beginning professional practice, part two Type Journal Article
  Year 2003 Publication Nursing Praxis in New Zealand Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 19 Issue 3 Pages (down) 40-49  
  Keywords Problem solving; Critical thinking; Nursing; Education  
  Abstract In this article, the second of two, the literature is examined to determine the ability of problem-based learning to develop professional nursing practice. Professional practice depends on critical thinking for the development of both rational problem-solving skills and critical reflective thinking. This article proposes that problem-based learning has the potential to develop the critical thinking skills required for problem solving and decision-making. However problem-based learning is less likely to promote the critical reflective thinking without which the transformative practice needed to drive health gains in the 21st century is unlikely to emerge.

  Title Emotional competence and nursing education : A New Zealand study Type Journal Article
  Year 2008 Publication Nursing Praxis in New Zealand Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 24 Issue 1 (Mar) Pages (down) 36-47  
  Keywords Teaching methods; Communication; Nursing; Education; Nursing models  
  Abstract Explores the challenges encountered by nurse educators who seek to assess aspects related to emotional competence in nursing students. This emotional competence includes nurses managing their own emotional life along with the skill to relate effectively to the multiple colleagues and agencies that nurses work alongside. The research was designed to explore the views of nurse educators about the challenges they encounter when seeking to assess a student's development of emotional competence during the three year bachelor of nursing degree. Focus groups were used to obtain from educators evidence of feeling and opinion as to how theory and practice environments influence student nurses' development of emotional competence. The process of thematic analysis was utilised and three key themes arose as areas of importance to the participants. These were personal and social competence collectively comprises emotional competence in nursing; emotional competence is a key component of fitness to practise; and transforming caring into practice. The findings of the study indicate a need for definition of what emotional competence is in nursing. It is argued that educators and practicing nurses, who work alongside students, must uphold the expectation that emotional competence is a requisite ability and should themselves be able to role model emotionally competent communication.

  Title 'Never mind the quality, feel the width': The nonsense of 'quality', 'excellence', and 'audit' in education, health and research Type Journal Article
  Year 2008 Publication Collegian: Journal of the Royal College of Nursing Australia Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 15 Issue 1 Pages (down) 35-41  
  Keywords Accountability; Quality assurance; Organisational change; Nursing research; Nursing; Education  
  Abstract The author contends that health care and education have been colonised by 'The Audit Society' and managerialism. It is argued that under the benign guise of 'improving quality' and 'ensuring value for money' a more Orwellian purpose operates. Academics had to be transformed into a workforce of 'docile bodies', willing to scrutinise and survey themselves and their 'performance' as outcome deliverers and disciples of the new 'Qualispeak'. This paper critiques the current obsession with audit and performativity, and the constant and often pointless 'change' that is held to be so self-evidently 'a good thing' and identifies policy discussion as a linguistic wasteland.
