PD trivia: Making learning fun.
Nurses are educators. It is the aim of every educator that his or her teaching should translate into learning. Effective teaching is especially of importance in assuring that patients learn to perform their own peritoneal dialysis (PD). In facilitating an environment where learning can occur, making learning fun is the objective. It is with this mandate that PD Trivia was created. PD Trivia is an interactive game created to facilitate and reinforce learning. PD Trivia consists of 100 essential questions to making PD a success at home. Evaluations at the peritoneal dialysis clinic have revealed excellent quantitative and qualitative results of this simple but comprehensive teaching tool for effective learning of PD.
