Abstract

Throughout this research, incivility in nursing education has been examined, with a specific focus on the online environment. Incivility in nursing education has been widely researched in the traditional classroom, but limited research has been conducted to examine the occurrences and types of incivility in the online learning environment. With vast differences between the traditional classroom and the online classroom, it is essential to develop an enhanced understanding of these behaviors as perceived by the student. Student perceptions were gathered from graduate nursing students enrolled in at least one online course at a one Midwestern, private, faith-based university. The Incivility in the Online Learning Environment (IOLE) survey developed by Dr. Cynthia Clark was used to answer the question: In students who are actively enrolled in one school of nursing and who are taking at least one online course, what are their perceptions of faculty-to-student and student-to-faculty incivility in the online learning environment. Results of this study can be used to contribute to guiding faculty development through education of incivility and promotion of civil behaviors.
