INSTRUCTIONAL METHODS AND TEACHING STRATEGIES The curriculum employs a variety of instructional methods that support the course objectives while fostering higher cognitive skills. These methods are designed to encourage and engage you in the learning process in order to maximize learning opportunities. The instructional methods include but are not limited to lectures, collaborative learning options, use of technology, and hands-on activities. To implement the above-mentioned instructional methods, this course uses several teaching strategies, such as lectures, collaborative learning options, and hands-on activities. Your progress will be regularly assessed through a variety of assessment tools including homework assignments, quizzes, exams, clinical evaluations, and comprehensive final exam. OUT-OF-CLASS WORK For purposes of defining an academic credit hour for Title IV funding purposes, ITT Technical Institute considers a quarter credit hour to be the equivalent of: (a) at least 10 clock hours of classroom activities and at least 20 clock hours of outside preparation; (b) at least 20 clock hours of laboratory activities; or (c) at least 30 clock hours of externship, practicum or clinical activities. ITT Technical Institute utilizes a time-based option for establishing out-of-class activities which would equate to two hours of out-of-class activities for every one hour of classroom time. The procedure for determining credit hours for Title IV funding purposes is to divide the total number of classroom, laboratory, externship, practicum and clinical hours by the conversion ratios specified above. A clock hour is 50 minutes. A credit hour is an artificial measurement of the amount of learning that can occur in a program course based on a specified amount of time spent on class activities and student preparation during the program course. In conformity with commonly accepted practice in higher education, ITT Technical Institute has institutionally established and determined that credit hours awarded for coursework in this program course (including out-of-class assignments and learning activities described in the Course Outline section of this syllabus) are in accordance with the time-based option for awarding academic credit described in the immediately preceding paragraph. 16 Date: 6/13/2016

ACADEMIC INTEGRITY All students must comply with the policies that regulate all forms of academic dishonesty or academic misconduct. For more information on the academic honesty policies, refer to the Student Handbook and the Course Catalog. 17 Date: 6/13/2016

APPENDIX A: CHECKLISTS AND TOOLS CLINICAL EVALUATION TOOL NU260 Clinical Evaluation Tool Student Clinical Agency Faculty Rating Scale Satisfactory = S The student consistently works at the level expected of a second-year nursing student. The behavior/response being evaluated has been demonstrated consistently. The student will be given a copy of their midterm and final clinical evaluations, but the originals will be kept by the nursing program in the student s file at the campus.
