Description:

For students wishing instruction that is not available through other regularly scheduled courses in this discipline.

This seminar course provides a variable credit context for these purposes. As requirements, this seminar course must first be pre-approved by the department chair; second, it must provide at least nine contact hours of lab or lecture for each credit hour offered; and third, it must include some academic project or paper (i.e., credit is not given for attendance alone). This course may include standard lectures, travel and field trips, guest speakers, laboratory exercises, or other non-traditional instruction methods. Note that this course is an elective and does not fulfill general education or program requirements. **COURSE LEARNING OUTCOMES (CLOs) At the successful conclusion of this course, students will be able to: 1. Analyze the data needed to demonstrate the ability to provide high quality direct and indirect care for patients. 2. Critique reliable evidence to demonstrate clinical reasoning/judgment. 3.

Distinguish what culturally sensitive holistic nursing care is needed while protecting and promoting human dignity and diversity. 5.
