Contribution
Nursing education has over the past 20 years undergone significant substantive and organizational changes (Spitzer and Perrenoud 2006). Still, there is a call for radical transformation within nursing education, if the education wants to prepare nursing students to enter a complex practice in which changes are both inevitable and rapid (Benner, Sutphen, Leonard & Day, 2010). This research project will investigate an alternative educational model in a Danish Nursing programme at The School of Health Sciences in Aarhus. The aim for the research is to investigate how the alternative educational model works both in terms of an individual and organizational perspective. This paper will focus on the attempt to integrate classroom and clinical teaching strategies in order to discuss and reflect upon issues related to typical learning situations in both clinical and scholastic learning contexts.
In terms of theory the research project is anchored in a variety of learning theories conceptualizing the spectra from the learning student to the learning organization (Borgnakke, 2005). And tries to combine concepts of situated learning theory (Lave & Wenger, 1991) with strategies to teach for a sense of salience, clinical and moral imagination and formation (Benner, Sutphen, Leonard & Day, 2010) with concepts of experienced based learning from Negt (1971).
