Challenges in Collaboration
Over the last few years, the term collaboration appears to be word that is used frequently in many aspects of the professional world, with the nursing being no exception. It is used in the educational and practice domain but also in the professional organizational setting. However, with collaboration, there are challenges. How does an organization continue to collaborate when there is a distinct difference in philosophy? It is through mutual respect and clarity of differing philosophies that true collaboration will result. (Source: Teaching and Learning in Nursing)

Thinking Like a Nurse
I was at a meeting of community college administrators (not nursing) this past fall, and someone commented to me, “Oh, you are the nurse; you think like one.” I have no idea what was meant by this statement, but I chose to take it as a compliment. This interaction has stuck with me and has caused me to reflect on how I apply “thinking like a nurse” to many other areas in my life. (Source: Teaching and Learning in Nursing)

Workplace Issues: Am I in a Hostile Work Environment?
Since the dawn of time when humans first began to socialize and work together, workplace discontent has been evident. The existence of unpleasant and annoying coworkers, those who gossip and complain, or nonproductive coworkers who are expert at pushing the work off on others are frequent workplace challenges. None of these issues, however, rises to the level of creating a workplace that is legally hostile or harassing. Today's headlines are rampant with allegations of hostile work environment, harassment/sexual harassment, and sexual assault. (Source: Teaching and Learning in Nursing)

Why Are Students Failing Clinical? Clinical Instructors Weigh In
Competent nurses must be proficient in both theoretical and applied knowledge. To achieve this proficiency, nursing students must demonstrate competency in both theoretical content and clinical skills. Despite the importance of the acquisition of clinical skills, scant research has been reported on reasons for nursing students' failure because of the inability to demonstrate competency in the clinical setting. California nursing schools were surveyed through SurveyMonkey to identify and explore the main factors related to undergraduate nursing students' inability to pass clinical.

Evaluating Association Degree Nursing Faculty Job Satisfaction
This study identified factors of Associate Degree Nursing (ADN) faculty job satisfaction and dissatisfaction. Qualified applicants are denied admission to nursing programs because of faculty shortages, but little is known about the factors that support faculty retention. A nationwide survey was conducted and found that factors of dissatisfaction were salary, organizational policies, and workload. Factors of greatest satisfaction were interactions, professional status, and autonomy. These findings provide important information from which to create innovative solutions to retain current faculty. (Source: Teaching and Learning in Nursing)

Influential Factors of Student Evaluations of Teaching in a Nursing Program
We used a logistic regression model to analyze data from routinely collected student evaluation of teaching from 2,211 nursing students over 8 semesters. The results showed that not all aspects of teaching are equally influential in their effects on students' overall rating of instructors' teaching as excellent. Influential aspects include motivation, individual assistance, presentation of concepts, environment, and practical application. The most influential evaluation aspect is motivation.
