Maximizing learning among students from culturally diverse backgrounds.

As student diversity in the classroom increases, it is imperative that faculty use a variety of teaching methods. Although culture generally focuses on ethnicity, diversity can be defined by numerous student characteristics and other factors related to learning. These factors included ethnicity, place of birth, immigration status, age, gender, lifestyle, and educational and career background. The authors address diversity in the classroom, propose a model for viewing diversity, and suggest ways to maximize learning among students from culturally diverse backgrounds.

The collaborative track option for BSN education: the best of both worlds.

As the healthcare needs of patients in acute and community settings become increasingly complex, the demand for nurses with baccalaureate and higher degrees will increase. The collaborative efforts of faculty from 1 university and 4 community colleges created a model for increasing the number of BSN graduates in 4 years. The authors describe this collaborative track model that efficiently uses the strengths and resources of both community colleges and a university for preparing baccalaureate degree nurses.
