title: Collaborative teaching: preparing for the reality of nursing.
abstract: Together, a local healthcare agency and the baccalaureate faculty at a Midwestern university designed a management course that uses a collaborative clinical teaching model. The teaching method gives the senior nursing student an opportunity to learn the leader/manager/coordinator role. As a result, students are better prepared to make professional judgments and care for large groups of clients in acute healthcare settings.
