A program evaluation approach to drug administration education.

Abstract

To evaluate the education of undergraduate nursing students in drug administration, the faculty of La Salle University School of Nursing structured a program evaluation plan using a curriculum map. Faculty track the cognitive, affective, and psychomotor skills involved in drug administration. For example, all clinical nursing courses and the pharmacology course contain dosage and intravenous solution calculations in didactic material and tests. Program evaluation of the outcomes of medication administration education is continuous throughout the curriculum.

Myco-Ed: Mycological curriculum for education and discovery.

Fungi are important and hyperdiverse organisms, yet chronically understudied. Most fungal clades have no reference genomes, impeding our understanding of their ecosystem functions and use as solutions in health and biotechnology. Also, opportunities for training in fungal biology and genomics are lacking, creating a bottleneck that hinders the recruitment and cultivation of a talented future mycological workforce. To address these issues, we developed Myco-Ed, an educational program offering training and scientific contributions through genome sequencing and analysis. Myco-Ed empowers students to pursue careers in fungal biology while improving fungal resources. Myco-Ed has been piloted at 12 institutions (15 classrooms) ranging from online e-Campuses to R1 universities, resulting in hundreds of fungal observations and many new high-quality reference genomes.
