Product details


Product Description

Product Description
One of the Healthcare Active Learning series of open learning books. The books are produced by the Open Learning Foundation (a group of higher learning institutions, mainly universities, devoted to promoting high quality flexible learning materials) and Churchill Livingstone. The books offer open learning courses ranging from 15-40 hours study time at an extremely low cost (approx. ?1 per study hour). The quality of the materials is high, and they are very flexible in allowing the student to choose when and how they would like to study. The books all contain workbook sections, readers/resource sections, exercises, and self-assessment sections. Academic credits for the learning gained can be obtained in a number of ways. If the user is not using the OL materials in the context of a specific course, they can talk to their line manager or local College or University Dept of Nursing and Healthcare who can advise them on possible methods of accreditation. To facilitate ease of attainment of learning credits, the OLF is piloting an accreditation scheme which will allow users to get learning credits through the OLF and the piloting institutions. For nurses who want to use these open learning materials to update their learning and improve their practice for PREP, no formal accreditation is required. They simply note their learning outcomes in their professional portfolio and this (and the workbook itself) is evidence of their continuing professional education. Features: * very attractively designed and laid out, making study interesting and pleasurable * offers enormous flexibility to students so that they can choose when and where they want to study * the new wave of titles in the series (of which this is one) also fit in with the new nursing courses in the UK for continuing professional development and advanced nursing practice * an extremely economical way of studying - HAL titles work out at about ?1 per study hour, much cheaper than most open learning materials on the market - and for nurses wishing to use them in the context of their PREP requirements it can work our very economically indeed * written by respected lecturers in the topic, put together by the OLFs experts in producing open learning materials, and published by Churchill Livingstone with all our experience in producing high quality books and learning materials
