I do not have any relevant financial / non-financial relationships with any proprietary interests.
My leadership, research and scholarship has advanced nursing education by developing evidence of best practices and creating new educational models and pedagogical practices that facilitate student readiness for the profession. I use different approaches such as simulation, innovative clinical models, flipped classroom and interprofessional education to enhance student learning, and rigorously test these approaches to contribute to the evidentiary base of nursing education. My work has significantly improved disciplinary understanding of the challenges of current education models and driven change in curricula across the country. My research advances the science by developing evidence to direct transformative changes in education across pre-licensure, graduate and doctoral education. In this area, I conducted several national studies exploring the state of undergraduate and graduate clinical education.
