Abstract

The National League for Nursing developed core competencies for nurse educators. These competencies require nurse educators to develop evidence-based teaching practice, utilize technology, and manage individual students' learning styles (www.NLN.org).In an effort to decrease attrition and increase student retention in a beginning medical–surgical course, a multifarious instructional design was implemented. This design was developed based on evidence-based teaching and learning styles to address the diverse student learning styles encountered in an associate degree nursing program. Multifarious instructional design incorporated technology to enhance the learning in the classroom. This design improved student retention by 30%.
