Media for an integrated nursing curriculum.
In conclussion, the media decision-making process for an integrated nursing curriculum is based upon the following steps: - An analysis of the philosophy and unifying strands in the conceptual framework of the curriculum model, - An evaluation of currently owned media in terms of the theoretical framework and educational objectives of the model, - An assessment of commercial media with realistic planning for purchase and/or production, and - The development of a systematic ongoing evaluation process by students, faculty, and nursing service personnel. The focus of this discussion has been clarification of the assessment and planning steps necessary in the media decision-making process for an integrated nursing curriculum. While these steps are applicable to any educational model, they have particular relevance to a curriculum model in which concept learning and interrelationships are stressed.
