“…The researchers used AR to understand rubber farmers’ work‐related health problems in their local work and daily living contexts. They drew on adult learning theory using the stakeholders’ experiences, needs and feedback to produce and revise training materials (Gatti‐Petito et al., ). They also encouraged the farmers to use self‐reflection learning and visual images rather than text and simplified training content as primary school was the highest education level for most farmers.…”

“…For adult learners, knowledge construction is contextual, and faculty needs to help students connect abstract ideas to real‐world experiences. Using stories and real‐life examples from the practice setting can help bring abstract concepts to life . Motivation to learn is another trait of adult learners.…”

“…Lastly, adult learners need to engage in thought‐provoking dialog to examine assumptions and innovative problem solving as they want to be active participants in the learning process. This approach helps build confidence, increases satisfaction, and reinforces the motivation to learn . Faculty may feel that they are in over their heads, as they are seeking learner‐centered approaches to facilitate the analytic skills of their BSN‐DNP students.…”

Programs with several paths to the Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) face significant difficulties in preparing clinical scholars who can transform healthcare. While Post-Baccalaureate to DNP (BSN-DNP) programs are fulfilling the Institute of Medicineʼs mandate for seamless academic progression, several factors need to be considered for studentsʼ successful program completion. These factors include: (1) the studentsʼ stage of cognitive development for strategic thinking (metacognition); (2) studentsʼ tendency to underestimate the rigors of doctoral educational requirements; and (3) faculty challenges in helping students to acquire skills needed to complete the DNP project. The purpose of this paper is to describe learner-centered approaches to enhance analytic preparation of BSN-DNP students.

“…From the results evidenced, the intervention stage was developed with theoretical base on the Keller's ARCS Motivational Design Model focused on maximizing the educator's effectiveness by focusing the learner's attention, relevance, trust and satisfaction via workshops, demonstrations, teaching aids, work models (10) with theoreticalpractical sessions during 12 weeks, which explained different techniques of oral hygiene according to patient's oral condition. The sessions addressed themes regarding the anatomy and physiology of the oral cavity, oral pathologies common in ICU patients, identification model of oral problems, ventilator-associated pneumonia, and oral hygiene techniques for intubated patients focused on the use of the toothbrush and dental floss to remove bacterial plaque, application of chlorhexidine with gauze to clean the teeth and all the mouth structures, the change of tube clamping to avoid ulcers, and the importance of hydrating the lips.…”

Objective. This work sought to evaluate the impact of an educational intervention on oral hygiene care aimed at nursing care staff, on the incidence of Ventilator-Associated Pneumonia (VAP) in adults from an ICU in Colombia. Methods. Quasi-experimental study pre- and post-educational intervention aimed at nursing staff in which theoretical-practical sessions were conducted during 12 weeks to explain different oral hygiene techniques according to the oral conditions of patients. The study gathered sociodemographic, clinical, and characteristic variables of the oral and dental care received. The VAP was diagnosed according with international criteria. Results. The educational intervention received participation from 60 individuals (40 nurses and 20 nursing aides), 80% were women. The work collected data from 171 patients, 70 (40.9%) cared for after the educational intervention. Daily oral and dental care by the staff increased from 29.6% to 92.8% after the intervention. Although the accumulated incidence of VAP diminished from 8.9% to 2.8% and the rate of incidence dropped from 9 to 3.5 cases per 1000 days of intubation, these changes were not statistically significant. Conclusion. The educational intervention aimed at the nursing staff in oral care reduced the incidence of VAP in adults connected to ventilator in ICU; although this decrease was not statistically significant, it was a clinically relevant result for the institution, which is why it is necessary to continue the educational strategies on oral health studied in this staff.
