Abstract

This research explored the impact on overall specialty course grades for nursing students who either participated in or did not participate in experiential learning clinical orientations in specialty nursing areas and overall course grades. The experiential learning clinical orientations were developed and implemented to address the lack of clinical sites, faculty, and learners' clinical experiences in an accelerated baccalaureate nursing program (ABSN) program at two locations. Learners were immersed in simulated encounters of various levels of fidelity that they may not have been able to be actively involved in during traditional clinical encounters. The methodology used was qualitative quasi-experimental: non-equivalent groups.
