      • In order to initiate faculty practice, a nursing program
        should:


        • evaluate financial and clinical resources

          including contract limitations

        • clarify values and define priorities with related goals

  • AACN - Publications - Position Statements on 2009-11-04
    • Scholarship in nursing can be defined as those activities that systematically
      advance the teaching, research, and practice of nursing through rigorous inquiry
      that 1) is significant to the profession, 2) is creative, 3) can be documented,
      4) can be replicated or elaborated, and 5) can be peer-reviewed through various
      methods.
      This definition is applied in the following standards that describe
      scholarship in nursing.
    • Knowledge of the discipline or specialty applied in
      teaching-learning
      includes innovations that demonstrate the knowledge of the
      faculty member in relation to teaching (such as authorship of textbooks or other
      learning aids), technology application, and theory building in the
      teaching-learning assessment context.

      Development of innovative teaching and evaluation methods
      includes research in teaching strategies, course development and outcome
      evaluation, curricular and faculty evaluation innovations, research related to
      the knowledge and pedagogy of nursing, and creation of innovative learning
      environments that support diverse groups of students.

      Program development and learning outcome evaluation
      includes the development of outcomes assessment programs, accreditation reports,
      grant proposals for educational programs, disciplinary and interdisciplinary
      programs, and educational evaluation models.

      students and novice faculty, leadership roles in curriculum and instruction,
      development of programs for lifelong learning, and leadership in shaping
      educational policy.

  • National League for Nursing - About the NLN on 2009-11-04
    • Using a ratio of 10:1 (students:full-time faculty member), the number of
      full-time faculty required to teach those 400,000 students enrolled in today's
      3,500 programs may be as high as 40,000.
    • Does all this suggest that we should ignore the research requirements
      established in many institutions for academic appointment, promotion and tenure?
      No. However, it does suggest that the academic community should not assume that
      individuals are qualified to teach simply because they hold a particular
      credential (i.e., master's degree or doctorate) and have expertise in a
      particular area (whether that be nursing, statistics, or any other field). The
      academic community also should not assume that individuals learn to be teachers,
      advisors, curriculum developers, and educational leaders through "on-the-job
      training" or "trial by fire," rather than through planned, deliberate
      preparation for such roles and responsibilities.
