Concept Mapping - Presentation Transcript

  1.  
    • Concept mapping allows the nurse to work on critical thinking skills by determining the priority needs of the patient and the relationship of the data documented on the concept map.
    • Concept mapping improves a nurse's ability to organize his/her bank of knowledge for application in the nursing profession.
    • Concept mapping allows the nurse to assimilate previously learned knowledge with newly acquired knowledge.
    • Concept mapping increases a nurse's critical thinking and clinical reasoning skills.
    • A concept map is a visual aid it may increase a nurse's retention of knowledge.
    • Concept mapping links nursing theory with nursing practice.
    • Concept mapping allows the nurse to identify what he/she knows about the patient and also to identify what he/she must learn to care for this patient.
    • ...the intellectually disciplined process of actively and skillfully conceptualizing, applying, analyzing, synthesizing, and/or evaluating information gathered from, or generated by, observation, experience, reflection, reasoning, or communication, as a guide to belief and action.

    • Write the main idea in the center of the page -- it may be a word, a phrase, or a couple of juxtaposed ideas, for example -- then place related ideas on branches that radiate from this central idea.

    • Create a concept or mind map of the concept  " CRITICAL THINKING!"
    • This will require that you "draw a picture" of what the concept of critical thinking means to you.
    •  
    • You will want to refer to the first 4 chapters of Alfaro-LeFevre to help formulate your thoughts about critical thinking.
    • Alfaro-LeFreve pp.260-262 discusses the process of creating a concept map.   
    • The goal is to give you another tool to promote critical thinking.  (It really is fun, but may take some time to create the map.)
    • Your end product should be created in Microsoft Word [97 – 2003] document [doc.] and posted to both the Digital Drop Box and Discussion Board.
    • Please do not post in any other than a word document [i.e. wps, zip, etc.] – this will affect your grade.
    • Late work will not be accepted without prior approval
