Analyzing the Teaching Style of Nursing Faculty: Does It Promote a Student-Centered or Teacher-Centered Learning Environment?

Schaefer, Karen Moore; Zygmont, Dolores

Nursing Education Perspectives, v24 n5 p238-45 Sep-Oct 2003

Nursing faculty (n=187, 37% response) completed the Principles of Adult Learning Scale. Results suggested that they were more teacher than learner centered and written philosophies reflected teacher centeredness. However, their use of student-centered language indicates they recognize the need but do not know how to implement it. (Contains 31 references.) (Author/SK)
