The Effect Of Transfer Training On The Classroom

Being a student in the UW nursing school, I can not only take advantage of the special classroom settings, but also the advanced technology. With classroom settings designed for active learning, it gives me opportunities to share my thoughts and ideas with other students. Instead of listening passively, we would work as a team to find out the best solution for patients. Besides, the unique state-of-the-art technology allows me to practice and apply my knowledge in a simulated hospital setting. Since every practice is recorded, I can take a look at those videos several times and self-reflect. Thus, I can correct my mistakes and improve.

Again I would not use any equipment I have not been fully trained on. I would ensure I am wearing correct clothing and footwear when moving and positioning an individual, to avoid risk of being harmed, for example I would not wear open shoes or sandals while using a hoist. I would need to check my surroundings (enough room, loose rugs, furniture in the way) and the equipment being used (enough charge, no loose wires, and sling clean and intact). Infection control also plays a part in this too, correct PPE (personal protective equipment) should be worn and hands washed. NEVER rush when moving and/or positioning an individual.

I also used some equipment like different types of chest drains, water and a dame in of a person to demonstrate to my peers. I used psychomotor learning domain as it was described by Bloom (1956) cited by De Tornyay & Thompson (1987) to be most important domain compared with Cognitive and Affective domains as it enabling the learner to learn through the demonstrated skill.

Background: Week one skills lab was a hectic day in which I was taught the following sills : Bed bath , the making of an occupied and unoccupied bed , and protective restraints. As a CNA, I have perfomed these skills many times but it was nice to review them in a classroom setting.

These studies show that focused practice leads to significant improvement over a shorter timeframe and that skills are transferrable to the operating theatre.

The characteristics of my job will require focusing on the advantages and the disadvantages of one-to-one instruction and that of demonstration and return demonstration. Group discussions, team-based learning, cooperative learning, and seminars are instructional areas for which I can recommend my patients to attend. One-on-one instruction allows the exchange of information between the nurse and patient with regards to the characteristics of the patient, behavioral objectives, educator skills, and selection of appropriate teaching material (Bastable, 2014, p. 509). The communication skills are vital for nursing to create a relationship with the patient that would create an environment conducive to teach. Demonstration and return demonstration allows a nurse to show how to perform particular skills and evaluate the reacceptance of the skill by observing the patient perform it with minimal assistance (Bastable, 2014, p. 483). These instructional methods are stretched out over the course of the patient’s stay and are not the sole focus of teaching only at discharge. I take advantage of teaching moments throughout the shift to help plan for an effective final discharge instructions. This hand on approach allows teaching moments to have a positive affect on clients when presented with written material and information upon

Training methods can be classified in three ways: information presentation, simulation methods, or on-the-job training (Cascio, 2006). The method of choice for our training will be a

My desire to learn and experience in many different occupations has given me a wide variety of workplace skills. These skills involve use of my hands and mind handling my workload while maintaining healthy

Psychoeducational therapy is a skill taught, educational style of treatment. With its unpretentious and direct thought process, it is easy to comprehend the concept of how and why it works. This is a relatively new style approach of family therapy, compared to the established schools like psychodynamic, transgenerational, experiential, structural, strategic, and behavioral and cognitive-behavioral models. I selected this therapy because it is straight forward like me. The subjects that will be discussed within this paper comprise of its history, families dealing with mental disorders, medical family therapy, short-term educational programs, and a brief summary.

The sample size was usually small, ranging from (n= 5-32) for almost all the studies (Pai, Wang, Espy, et al, 2010; Liu and Kim, 2012; Shimada, et al, 2004; Pai, Bhatt, Yang, et al., 2014; Mansfield, et al, 2010). However, one study had a large small size (n=212) but, More than 80% of this larger sample size could not complete the training program due to drop out rates. Therefore, the results of all the studies were drawn from smaller sample size (Pai, Bhatt, Yang, et al., 2014). All these sample size questions the generalizability of the study (bad external validity).

Kindergarten classrooms will run efficiently when students follow procedures and rules. When the students choose to follow them they will get rewarded or pay the consequence. When all of the students are following the rules there will be less interruptions. Procedures, rules, and a reward system allows more time for conductive learning. In everyday routines, “children have to suppress undesirable behaviors in order to follow their caregivers’ requests” (Kopp, 1982, p. 208).

The specific instructional method that will be utilized for this educational initiative is demonstration and discussion to attain the learning objectives. This presentation is an excellent way to coach and engaged learners in the active learning process and makes learning permanent. This instructional method supports the psychomotor domain and offers multiple advantages at the same time connecting with various learning styles such as visual, kinesthetic, auditory and linguistic learners. This method of instruction is the optimal method to gain skill competency and keep the audience engaged. Furthermore, this technique provides change for the target population through education by the utilization of evidence-based practices to transformed the current ways of doing things to an improved method. Therefore, this method facilitates competencies that can be applied to the profession.

First, I thougth it would be inportant to understand what transer of training is, so I found some research on it from the Office of Personnel Managment. This information is below.

1. The main goal of the analysis being conducted is to assess whether the new curriculum on basic electricity in basic science yields better achievement outcomes compared to the existing curriculum, which is a more traditional teaching approach, for elementary school students in both urban and suburban schools. In doing this analysis some questions that will be key to this study is to reveal if this new curriculum is beneficial when compared to the traditional teaching approach. Indeed, some students are randomly assigned to both the new curriculum and to the traditional teaching approach. As a result, through this randomization biases will be kept from occurring. This investigation is important because it will be determined what yielded better results through focusing on examining differences in the posttest variable for children who did or did not experience the new curriculum.

The second system that I was assigned to demonstrate and teach was musculoskeletal assessment, which included focused interviews and physical assessment of the muscle, skeleton, and joint movement. The musculoskeletal systems assessment is a total of body assessment, which included assessment of joint (ROM), shoulder, Elbows, wrists, hands, hip, knees, ankle, feet and spine. In this presentation, I demonstrated how to assess ROM in different part of body at different angle and perform different assessment tests (Bulge sine test, ballottement test, phalen’s test and tinel’s sign test). I also demonstrated to my classmate how to perform different kind of ROM such as abduction, adduction, flexion,
