A descriptive inquiry into the educational focus of a nursing collegeMouton, Chautnette 06 1900 (has links)
Text in English / The question the researcher set out to answer during this research study was: "What is the Educational Focus of a Nursing College, when viewed within Bevis and Watson's Humanistic·Educative-Caring Curriculum
Paradigm versus a Stimulus-Response Curriculum Paradigm?"
To answer this question, an exploratory, descriptive and contextual study was undertaken. The population consisted of tutors employed at a College of Nursing. From this population a purposive sample was drawn. Data was collected by means of formal, semi-structured interviews and a questionnaire. Content analysis was used to analyse the data.
It was found that during the first year of students' education and training, the Educational Focus of the College was on training but during the second year, the focus changed to the transitional phase. The transitional phase is situated between training and education. During the third and fourth year, the focus was also in transition, but the way students learn was at the training phase. / Health Studies / M.A. (Advanced Nursing Sciences)

The development of a measuring instrument to determine the educational focus of students at a nursing collegeMouton, Chautnette 31 January 2007 (has links)
The question the researcher set out to answer was "What is the educational focus of a nursing college when viewed within Bevis and Watson's Humanistic-Educative-Caring Curriculum Paradigm versus a Stimulus-Response Curriculum Paradigm?" The purpose of this study was to develop and test an instrument based on the Bevis and Watson Humanistic-Educative-Caring Model; an educational paradigm shift from the Tylerian rationale in nursing education.
A questionnaire comprising 181 Two-Choice Comparative-Value-Statement Items was developed and tested. A non-experimental research design was implemented. During the developmental phase, a non-probability, purposive sample was used; the questionnaire (instrument) was developed; data were analysed by applying content analysis and the questionnaire was refined. During the testing phase a stratified, random sample was used consisting of first to fourth year students from two nursing colleges from the Gauteng Province; the items were tested against biographic data and hypotheses resulting from the Bevis and Watson model. Six conceptual continuums comprise the Bevis and Watson model namely, the Learner Maturity Continuum, the Teacher-student relationship, the Teacher-student structure, the Typology of Learning, Criteria for Teacher-Student Interactions and Criteria for Selecting and Devising Learning Experiences. Both descriptive and inferential statistics were utilised.
The results indicated that the educational focus of the respondents with regard to the Bevis and Watson model was predominantly humanistic. The exception occurred with regard to TUTOR: Teacher-student structure; pertaining to hypothesis 7 on language; and hypothesis 9 on gender, where a behaviouristic orientation appears to prevail. Significant differences were found between the model variables (conceptual continuums) and year group, language, college A and B, and gender. In hypothesis 5, although a humanistic orientation predominated, the 4th year students tended to display an increasing behaviouristic orientation. In hypothesis 8, although a humanistic orientation predominated, college A appeared less humanistic than college B.
Recommendations were made regarding nursing education and further research studies to refine the instrument. The implementation of the Bevis and Watson model calls for a curriculum paradigm shift in nursing education. / Health Studies / D.Litt. et Phil.
