Extern Programs Promote Confidence and Reduce Anxiety With Clinical Decision Making in Nursing Students
imageBackground Clinical decision making (CDM), expected of professional nurses, affects patient outcomes but is arduous for nursing students to learn. Psychological barriers (low self-confidence [SC] and high anxiety with CDM) have an impact on its achievement. Externship programs help mitigate these barriers. Purpose The aim was to examine the impact of summer employment (nurse extern [NE], nursing assistant, and non–health care employed) on students' confidence and anxiety with CDM. Methods The study used a quasi-experimental before-and-after design using the Nursing Anxiety and Self-Confidence with Clinical Decision Making scale. Associate and baccalaureate degree students (N = 134) from 2 nursing and 2 extern programs were included. Results The NEs reported significantly increased SC (F = 14.02, P < .001) and reduced anxiety (F = 8.64, P < .001). Nonsignificant improvements were noted in other groups. Conclusions Externships appear to enhance students' SC and lessen their anxiety with CDM.
Implementing Universal Design Instruction in Doctor of Nursing Practice Education
Background Faculty in Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) programs identify challenges of increased enrollment and variances in previous student educational preparation and professional experiences that require innovative approaches to curriculum transformation. Purpose This article informs nurse educators about the vibrant and inclusive approach of universal design for instruction (UDI), a framework to conceptualize and implement learning strategies in the DNP curriculum. Approach UDI is guided by 9 instructional principles that anticipate diverse learners and is intentionally inclusive of multiple ways of learning. Principles of UDI were synergized into several DNP didactic courses and the scholarly project process. Conclusion Integration of UDI into the DNP curriculum included precourse assessments, multiple modalities of content delivery, options to present acquired knowledge, and supporting the adult learner through the iterative work of the scholarly project.

Senior NCLEX-RN Coaching Model: Development and Implementation
Background A host of interventions have been used to improve NCLEX outcomes, yet scant evidence exists to show the influence of academic coaching on pass rates. Purpose To improve NCLEX confidence/readiness and pass rates in a baccalaureate nursing program, an NCLEX Coaching Model was developed and implemented. Method Senior students were paired with faculty for 6 weeks of NCLEX coaching. Students self-assessed strengths, risk factors, and challenges related to NCLEX preparation. Coaches and students co-developed the NCLEX Preparation and Success Plan using standardized NCLEX predictor scores. Success plans represented individualized preparation strategies focused on specific NCLEX Client Needs categories. Result National Council Licensure Examination confidence/readiness scores improved significantly, and first-time NCLEX pass rates improved slightly after coaching. Conclusion An NCLEX Coaching Model can build student confidence/readiness and promote NCLEX success among nursing students. Peplau's Theory of Interpersonal Relations was useful in guiding development and implementation of a coaching model.
