Nutrition & Exercise, Complementary & Alternative Holistic Strategies, and the Nurse's Role in Patient Education

Teaching Discussion Board

We hope that you are enjoying reading your selected book for the Book Review assignment and were able to learn health and wellness concepts that you can bring into your personal and professional lives. An integral part of nursing is teaching and there are always opportunities to teach your clients, patients, family, and friends. In this discussion, you will explore what you are already learning from the book you are reading, or what you have learned from other readings in this course, and how you could format a teaching plan to educate an audience on some of the concepts you have learned. You will include your Topic, a Rationale with citation/reference, an Intended Audience, a Teaching Method, 3 SMART Learner Objectives (can be short or long term), and how you will Evaluate objective achievement. For each of these 6 areas you will respond with 3-4 well written sentences. Your in-text citation AND corresponding reference should be in APA 7th edition format and from a recent (within last 5 years) professional journal or website (NIH, CDC, Healthy People, etc.).
