INTRODUCTION Given the complexity of the healthcare environment, nurse educators are challenged to create student-centered learning environments that facilitate student acquisition of knowledge, skills, attitudes, and behaviors consistent with professional standards and guidelines. Foundational to the success of the nurse educator is the ability to engage in comprehensive scholarly inquiry to identify best practices for creating learning environments that promote achievement of student-centered outcomes (also referred to as learner-centered outcomes). The purpose of this task is to facilitate your engagement in scholarly inquiry to effectively design varied learning environments to incorporate innovative, transformational, and experiential teaching and learning strategies. As a nurse educator, facilitating student engagement in solving practice-based problems while supporting collaboration and teamwork are essential learning strategies in nursing education. You will develop a course outline based on the information gained from conducting a review of the literature, and you will facilitate knowledge acquisition in diverse healthcare settings. SCENARIO You are the lead faculty in the community health nursing course for a prelicensure baccalaureate nursing (BSN) program.

The director of the nursing program has charged you with developing an eight-week course titled "The Role of the BSN Nurse in Promoting Community Health." The class meets for two hours weekly. The typical class size for the course is 40 students. In this task, you will create an outline that incorporates the essential components necessary for developing a course that will be informative to both students and faculty.
