A model for clinical teaching as a scholarly endeavor.
The traditional ways that academia has approached documentation of scholarship are relatively narrow and best fit those disciplines whose practice is research and writing. In professional practice disciplines such as nursing, writing and research are critical, but they are not the only scholarly activities in which faculty are involved. A model resulting from work from the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching offers a broader view of scholarship in which clinical teaching has academic legitimacy. The components of scholarship included in the model are discovery, practice, integration, and teaching.
