The nursing curriculum model has evolved from the previous “content-based approach” to an “outcomes-based approach.” As such, nursing faculty should pay to particular attention to changes in the working environment that their graduates can be expected to face. This paper developed a competency-oriented curriculum framework to address school and profession objectives. Concept analysis was used to clarify the characteristics of each competency and related concepts. Then, nursing faculties identified outcomes and desired target levels in line with student learning needs. Finally, teaching strategies and learning activities for class and clinical practice were developed. Competencies are not nurtured separately. Nursing faculty should provide adequate learning opportunities for their students in order to help students integrate healthcare knowledge, skills and attitudes successfully. In addition, the nursing faculty is responsible to guide students to emphasize quality of care and examine the association of such with professional competencies. Accumulating clinical experience and reflection will assist students to develop integrity and life-long learning abilities and graduate with solid professional competencies. |
