learning community

This paper describes a curriculum innovation that responds to the need for a clinical education course to prepare Australian clinical educators for their role in supporting students of nursing to develop clinical skills and gain confidence in the practice of nursing. The course is underpinned by two major theoretical approaches: learning community and transformative education. This paper reviews the literature on the strengths and challenges of online learning and describes the teaching and learning strategies, assessment, and online presentations that were designed to promote transformative learning and solidarity amongst participants.
