The American Association of Colleges of Nursing (AACN) has developed a task force to revise the Essentials. Go to the AACN website.
- Review the Video from the Essential Task Force Leadership Team, specially prepared for the National Faculty Meeting.
- Review the PDF presentation from the above Video.
- Review the DRAFT Essentials Domains and Descriptors.
Write an essay addressing each of the following points/questions. Be sure to answer all the questions for each bullet point completely. There should be three main sections, one for each bullet below.
Separate each section in your paper with a clear heading that allows your professor to know which bullet you address in that section of your paper. Support your ideas with at least three (3) sources using citations in your essay.
Make sure to cite using the APA writing style for the essay. The cover page and reference page in correct APA do not count towards the minimum word amount. Review the rubric criteria for this assignment.
- Do the proposed essential domains and descriptors encompass professional practice at the baccalaureate level?
- Discuss learning theories and/or effective teaching strategies that best align with the Quality and Safety Domain (5) and identified competencies viewed in the PowerPoint.
- Do you agree or disagree with the direction AACN is taking related to the AACN Essentials revision? Support your answer.
