1. Face to face lectures – this course benefits from the real time delivery of content. Face to face lectures offer synchronous learning opportunities and enable students to quickly clarify complex descriptions and terminology. Much of the content for this course is supported by textbooks with web page and e-learning supports (e.g. flash cards for revision). The School of Nursing supports the audio and video capture of lecture content as an aid to revision.
2. Problem Based Learning Tutorial sessions – PBL session enable small group discussion and peer interaction around a particular content. The PBL facilitator manages a staged release of information regarding the case at hand of which students need to formulate hypotheses and suggest interventions. The student group drives the direction of the inquiry and prepares a range of learning and resources for the following week where more details of the case are distributed. The facilitator will encourage and develop students to apply critical thinking of the scenario. The School of Nursing has been successfully using PBL for a number of years and staff from both undergraduate and postgraduate teaching are experience PBL facilitators.
3. Clinical Skills sessions - The Robin Warren Skills Laboratory within the Faculty of Health Sciences provides a state of the art clinical training venue with dedicated nursing lecturers with expertise in low fidelity simulation. Students will perform skills such as paediatric resuscitation, assessment and nursing care of infants. Establishing effective communication exchanges using ISBAR and principles of Team Stepps will be very relevant for student’s clinical placement. Further enhancement of the lab facility will enable high fidelity simulation to ensure the skills development of students occurs across the three years of the program.
4. Clinical placement (aka professional experience) - The Australian Nursing and Midwifery Accreditation Council mandates that programs leading to registration as a nurse must have a minimum number of hours of professional experience. This course provides skills and knowledge that enable students to participate at a level commensurate with their progression. Students work closely with university Lecturer A staff and clinicians to reinforce learning and ensure consistency of course objectives. The objective of the professional experience associated with this course is to extend students skills in the advanced assessment of paediatric and maternal populations. A sound understanding of psychosocial development and pathophysiology is expected of students placed within a paediatric setting. At this stage of the program students would, with supervision, be expected to assume responsibility (under supervision) for the care of 4 people according to the nature of the clinical placement.

Assessment 1: Paediatric Basic Life Support Assessment

Basic life support – paediatric: while basic Life Support applies to all age ranges this assessment requires students to focus on the resuscitation of infants and children. Students will repeat the skill station until they are deemed proficient.

Assessment 2: My Virtual Child

My Virtual Child: My Virtual Child is an interactive web-based simulation that allows students to raise a child from birth to age 18 and monitor the effects of ‘parenting’ decisions over time. This engaging assessment directly applies the key concepts of psychosocial development across the infant to adult lifespan and has been used in the School of Nursing for some time with great success. Students will download access from the My Virtual Child website and will ‘raise’ the child on their own or with another student. All work submitted however will be on an individual basis. During the process students will be asked to compare their child with expected human development as described in the textbook and via the links out of My Virtual Child. During this process there will be 3 assessments that will occur after particular stages of Development: After 3 years of age, after 12 years of age and after 18 years of age.

Assessment 3: Problem based learning (PBL) Participation and Attendance

Problem based learning (PBL) Participation and Attendance: students who are active participants in the problem based learning sessions each week will receive marks towards their contribution. Each PBL case will extend across 2 weeks with a range of psychosocial, pharmacological, pathophysiological and nursing assessments and interventions based on mental health, trauma and maternal health care.
 

ASSESSMENT 4: Clinical record / NCAS / Clinical Summative Assessment

The Clinical Record (Tollefson) identifies a range of competencies as required by the Nursing and Midwifery Board of Australia Competency Standards of the Registered Nurse 2006. Students will have a range of skills records to complete during their clinical placement. The Clinical Record provides evidence that the student has demonstrated the required level of competency standard. Consistent with competency type assessments a non – graded pass is awarded. Some remedial opportunities will be available to those students who fail or are not exposed to certain competencies in the clinical setting. The Clinical Record forms part of the broader portfolio developed across each year of the program and provides a consistent reference for students nursing skill development. Due to the allocation of clinical placements from an external body, CLINEDSA, some components of the Clinical Record may be completed across Health Assessment and Clinical Nursing 3 and 4 however students must make satisfactory progress towards completing the record wherever possible. The Clinical Record also provides the 4Rs reflective framework for clinical teaching staff and students.


In addition to the skills record each student is to obtain a completed NCAS (National Competency Assessment Schedule) at the end of each placement. There are a total of 8 competencies to be completed over the 3 year program. A written Summative Assessment must also be obtained at the end of each placement which will be completed by the supervising Registered Nurse and Clinical Lecturer.

Assessment 5: Examination: A 2 hour examination will cover the content of the course.

Using Turnitin

Assessment submission information This semester we are using Turnitin for assessment submission. Please refer to your study guide for assessment details and the information below about Turnitin. Turnitin is an electronic program that enables students to check that they are referencing correctly. It also enables more efficient feedback as assignments submitted via Turnitin are assessed using an online process.
Step-by-step instructions for submitting an assignment using Turnitin are on this webpage: http://www.adelaide.edu.au/myuni/student/tutorials/content/Turnitin-Submitting-a-Turnitin-Assignment-as-a-Student.html When you submit an assignment to this program, you will receive an "originality report" and an "originality score" - these will let you know if you have accidently used the words of other authors - any areas of your work that are too close to your cited or other resources will be highlighted. To see this report after you have submitted your assignment, go back into the program and click on "view" - this will show you your assignment with any similar text highlighted. Bear in mind that this program is very sensitive - don't worry too much if you seem to have a high originality score as the program includes quotes and references in the count. However, it is important that you check the text that is highlighted, if it is a correctly referenced quote or an item in your reference list that is highlighted then you can ignore it but if the highlighted text that isn't a quote or reference you will need to re-write those sections in your own words. After you have submitted your assignment you will receive an email confirming that your assignment has been submitted correctly. If you do not receive this email then go back and try again. Keep the email you receive, just in case there are any issues with your assignment submission as we may need to view it to confirm your submission date and time.
You can submit multiple times to this program - each new submission supersedes the previous, so we will only ever mark the latest version of your assignment! We encourage all students to practice with Turnitin before the final due date to make sure you know what you're doing.
A word of warning: although the program permits multiple submissions from a single student, Turnitin has a 24-hour lag between assignment submissions. For example, if you submit an assignment to the program at 10am on Sunday, you may not be able to submit again until 10am Monday! Be very careful to avoid a situation wherein you are unable to submit the final version of your assignment until after the final deadline. Falling into the 24hr lag window will not be grounds to avoid a lateness penalty, so if this happens you will need to use the online extension form.
If at any time you are having trouble submitting your assignment, please let us know ASAP so we can make alternate arrangements and please contact the Service Desk on 08 8313 3000 (open 24 hours).
