“…This link between knowledge and practice is vital for supporting clinical decision-making and development of the nursing profession (Regaa et al., 2017). Nurses should be aware of both what they are practicing and the reasons why they are doing that task (Rolfe, 2013).…”

The gap between education and the clinical practice has always been challenge for educational experts in the field. This article aims to explore the perspective of Iranian nursing experts about strategies used for coordinating education and clinical performance in nursing. This qualitative study was conducted by using a conventional content analysis approach; individual interviews were conducted at the participants’ work place; while focus group discussions took place at the Nursing and Midwifery Faculty of Iran University of Medical Sciences. Participants in this study included nursing instructors, educational supervisors and nursing managers with a clinical background and teaching experience of at least five years. In addition, a graduate nursing student and a nursing PhD candidate were also interviewed to ensure data saturation. Purposive sampling was conducted between April 2016–October 2017 among scholars and nursing professional experts who were highly experienced in this field. The two focus groups, obtained the views of nursing managers and educational supervisors working in educational hospitals. Analysis involved open stepwise coding with an emphasis on continuous comparison of data, and reference to written notes of the interviews. The analysis process was carried out in three main phases of preparation, organization, and reporting. The results of this study were classified in three main categories: developing context base curriculum, interactive collaboration among nurses and faculties, the Design and Implementation of a Standard Clinical Guideline. It seems that strong intention and active participation of all beneficiaries are needed to bridge the gap between theory and practice. Creating an appropriate context for nurses and nursing trainers for mutual learning along with the use of pragmatic language in the form of clinical guidelines can help decrease this gap.

Mathematics learning is one of the lessons which demands the students' discipline because it is a constructed subject. However, teachers often ignore the students' discipline during Mathematics learning. Thus, the students do not possess the discipline character. This survey research aims to describe the level of elementary school students' discipline character in Mathematics subject. All elementary schools in Berbah Sub-District, Yogyakarta were included as the population of this research. The purposive sampling technique was used to collect the data. The result of this study indicates that 48.70% of students have low discipline character in learning Mathematics. From the aspect of discipline character, the percentage of the obedience aspect is 50.61% (low). The percentage of orderly aspect is 50.26% (low), and the percentage of meticulous aspects is 44.41% (low). The elementary school students discipline in learning Mathematics in each elementary school is as follows: Elementary Schools SD Negeri Berbah 2 (47.50%), SD Negeri Jomblang 2 (46.25%), and SD Negeri Sumber 1 (52.36%). From the results of the research, it can be concluded generally that the level of elementary students' discipline character is still low. It leads to less effective and efficient learning processes.

“…Philosophical inquiries in nursing are useful for analysing and critiquing existing practices, exploring contextual factors affecting practice, sustaining and adapting to ongoing changes in knowledge development, and facilitating the linkages between theory, research and practice (Reed, 2018). Philosophical and theoretical knowledge developed based on such inquiries are essential for understanding the complex realms of nursing education, practice, and knowledge (Bruce, Rietze, & Lim, 2014; Rega, Telaretti, Alvaro, & Kangasniemi, 2017). The philosophical nursing content can offer a framework for understanding intricate nursing practice and enhancing evidence‐based nursing knowledge (Rega et al., 2017).…”

“…The philosophical nursing content can offer a framework for understanding intricate nursing practice and enhancing evidence‐based nursing knowledge (Rega et al., 2017). Given the importance of philosophy for nursing, nurse scholars used various philosophical schools of thought to guide nursing knowledge development, research, practice and care modalities (Rega et al., 2017). The commonly used schools of thought are empiricism, positivism, critical realism, relativism, historicism, feminism, postmodernism, poststructuralism and pragmatism (Rodgers, 2005).…”

Nursing is a philosophically grounded discipline. Philosophical inquiries in nursing are useful for analysing and critiquing existing practices, exploring contextual factors affecting practice, sustaining and adapting to ongoing changes in knowledge development, and facilitating the linkages between theory, research and practice (Reed, 2018). Philosophical and theoretical knowledge developed based on such inquiries are essential for understanding the complex realms of nursing education, practice, and knowledge (Bruce, Rietze,
