Title Doing phenomenological research collaboratively Type Journal Article
Year 2004 Publication Journal of Continuing Education in Nursing Abbreviated Journal Wintec Research Archive
Volume (up) 35 Issue 4 Pages 176-181
Keywords Qualiltative research; Nursing research; New graduate nurses
Abstract The purpose of this article is twofold. The first is to clarify some of the challenges experienced while conducting collaborative research and describe the steps taken to ensure consistency between the purpose of the research and the phenomenological research design used to explore the learning that nursing students acquire in their final clinical practicum. Second, it was thought that by illuminating this learning, registered nurses working as preceptors and those supporting new graduates could gain insight into the complexities of learning the skills of safe and competent practice from the student's perspective. This insight is essential in creating a strategy between education and practice to minimise the duplication of learning opportunities and lessen the cost of supporting newly registered nurses, which may be at the expense of investment in the professional development of experienced registered nurses.
