The RCN Education Forum Conference was held at the East Midlands
Conference Centre, Nottingham 10-11 March 2015 and I presented a paper “Evidence Based Innovation: the key to a successful and
inclusive student experience” with colleague Kerry Pace of Diverse Leaners on 11 March 2015. It was delivered to a packed seminar room of nurse
educators, researchers, practitioners and students, Kerry and I shared our
experiences of collaboration and innovation over 5 years to promote a more
inclusive and evidence based approach to teaching and learning in nurse
education.
The conference lasted
two days and a wide range of papers were presented covering themes such as
partnership working , the student experience, curriculum innovations,
leadership and practice learning. It was great to hear Jane Ball of University
of Southampton talk about RN4CAST and present the evidence that will hopefully
finally lay to rest the ‘too posh to wash/too clever to care’ views. Another conference highlight included hearing Lord
Willis taking about the future of nurse education on the eve of the publication
of the Shape of Caring Review. Looks like there are interesting times ahead!
