One-to-one teleapprenticeship as a means for nurses teaching and learning Parse's theory of human becoming.
This research investigated one-to-one teleapprenticeship as a means of teaching and learning Parse's theory of human becoming. Teleapprenticeship is defined as a one-to-one learning relationship, conducted entirely by E-mail, in which a mentor-teacher guides a learner in the construction of knowledge about a domain. Seventeen nurses (6 teachers and 11 learners) engaged in dialogue journaling about the theory relative to the learners' nursing practice. The teleapprenticeship experience was found to be useful for supporting a nurse in the study of theoretical aspects but may be insufficient for helping to develop proficiency in the practice methodology of the theory.
