NLN Nursing EDge Unscripted

Navigating Competency-Based Education through Simulations in Nursing Curriculum – Part 1


Listen Later

In part one of this two-part episode of NLN Nursing Edge Unscripted, host Dr. Raquel Bertiz from the National League for Nursing’s Center for Innovation in Education Excellence is joined by Dr. Laura Klenke-Borgmann from the University of Kansas School of Nursing. The discussion explores the integration of competency-based education (CBE) into nursing programs, focusing on initiatives at the University of Kansas School of Nursing led by Dr. Klenke-Borgmann. They implemented the "SimZones" framework, which progressively develops students' skills through simulations mapped to Miller's Pyramid of competency. This approach involves iterative evaluations, such as Objective Structured Clinical Examinations (OSCEs), to ensure students achieve proficiency through deliberate practice and reflective feedback. The program emphasizes transparency in evaluation and addresses challenges like shifting both student and faculty mindsets away from traditional pass/fail grading models. Outcomes from the pilot showed that 100% of students eventually reached competency, and their reflections highlighted the value of iterative learning and the pride in their development.
