Nursing Student Retention e-bog

In the current nursing shortage, student retention is a priority concern for nurse educators, health care institutions, and the patients they serve. This book presents an organizing framework for understanding student retention, identifying at-risk students, and developing both diagnostic-prescriptive strategies to facilitate success and innovations in teaching and educational research. The author's conceptual model for student retention, "e;Nursing Undergraduate Retention and Success,"e; is interwoven throughout, along with essential information for developing, implementing, and evaluating retention strategies. An entire chapter is devoted to how to set up a Student Resource Center. Most chapters conclude with "e;Educator-in-Action"e; vignettes, which help illustrate practical application of strategies discussed. Nurse educators at all levels will find this an important resource.
