The aim is to ensure responsiveness to these demands. This paper will provide students with an opportunity to consider nursing, midwifery and health care from an economic perspective. The course will include both theoretical and practical components. Practical aspects of the course will include some simple computer based exercises to demonstrate modelling, spreadsheets and the analysis of data. This paper is for both nurses and midwives.
Reflective practice is an important component of professional work.
In this paper, students will have the opportunity to explore a range of reflective practice techniques that are designed specifically to support practice development. Pedagogically the paper will employ action-research and peer processes. Students will actively gather clinical scenarios from their personal-professional practice worlds and employ a number of theoretical and practical frameworks for reviewing and analysing facets of their clinical performance and work. This paper is for both nurses and midwives. This paper will be available from the second half of 2001.
