Teaching Strategies Used by Baccalaureate Nurse Educators during the Coronavirus (COVID-19) Pandemic

ProQuest LLC, Ph.D. Dissertation, Capella University
In 2020, the world was affected by a highly transmissible new influenza A virus called the coronavirus (COVID-19) (CDC, 2020). Due to social distancing restrictions, academic nurse educators (ANE) needed to suspend traditional teaching and clinical methods to decrease the potential for disease transmission (Wyatt et al., 2021). ANEs turned to remote learning to teach their classes during the COVID-19 pandemic, requiring new ways to introduce nursing topics into their curriculum and developing online teaching strategies, causing many challenges. There is a need to study what methods ANEs in BSN programs used to replace traditional teaching methods for the classroom and clinical environments during the COVID-19 pandemic. Research regarding teaching strategies ANEs have used to fulfill curriculum requirements has been largely unexplored. The research question was, "What are the online teaching strategies used by baccalaureate (BSN) ANEs during the COVID-19 pandemic?". A basic qualitative methodology was used for this study. Participants were asked semi-structured questions in audio-taped interviews. Asking participants about their experiences using questions or interviews extracted the experiences of individuals. Purposive sampling was used for this study. ANEs from (BSN) programs with at least two years of teaching experience who taught in the traditional or hybrid classroom during the COVID-19 pandemic participated in the study. Data analysis identified three themes: teaching online, students, and emotions. Findings indicate that ANEs encountered challenges implementing online teaching strategies. Professional development for ANEs, ensuring ANEs and students have support, ensuring online teaching strategies meet course objectives, and ensuring students access internet connections before implementing these strategies are recommendations that may apply to all educators who implement online teaching strategies.
