Abstract
Effective clinical teaching is vital for student learning, and it is essential that clinical nursing instructors exhibit effective clinical teaching behaviors in the clinical learning environment. To provide students with the opportunity to successfully acquire and understand nursing professional roles and values, effective clinical nursing behaviors of the clinical instructor must be investigated. The effectiveness of the clinical instructor has been examined through various perspectives. However, the majority of studies have focused on effective clinical teaching behaviors as perceived by the student. The purpose of this quantitative correlational descriptive pilot study is to identify effective clinical teaching behaviors of clinical instructors from the perspective of undergraduate clinical nursing faculty and determine whether their perceptions are affected by clinical instructor experience using the Nursing Clinical Teacher Effectiveness Inventory (NCTEI) instrument. The sample consisted of 15 clinical nursing instructors from an accelerated proprietary associate degree registered nursing program based in California. The results of the pilot study identified high self-perceptions of effective clinical teaching behaviors of undergraduate clinical nursing instructors in all categories of the NCTEI with Teaching Ability category scoring the highest but did not determine significant statistical correlation between their perceptions of effective teaching behaviors and clinical instructor experience. Regardless of clinical teaching experience, clinical nursing instructors must continuously self-assess their teaching behaviors in the clinical setting and establish if the behaviors are facilitating student learning. Incorporating effective clinical teaching behaviors into routine evaluation and performance could be a beneficial strategy to enhance the quality of clinical teaching.
