NR 535: Week 4 Assignment: Preparing to Teach: Developing a Teaching Plan
Student’s Template
MSN Student’s Name: ……XXX…….
Required information regarding target audience:
The target audience for this lesson plan is associate degree nursing students in their first year.
Barriers to learning that may be present include preconceptions or misinformation related to the topic, classroom disruptions, and anxiety related
to the topic. Misinformation or preconception related to the topic could affect the teaching/learning process due to the learner having difficulty
differentiating between accurate information obtained in the classroom and prior knowledge. This barrier will be addressed by providing accurate
information related to the topic. Classroom disruptions can halt the teaching-learning process. This barrier will be addressed directly to those who
are being disruptive to prevent distractions and establish rules of the classroom. Anxiety related to the topic can affect learning due to possible
previous experiences with hospice or palliative care. This barrier will be addressed by professionally providing the lesson information without
providing personal experiences to prevent learners from becoming emotionally upset. My personal learning philosophy is that learning is a
collaborative effort between the educator and the learner. Allowing the learner to take charge of their learning process through discussion and
collaboration with other students and the educator will enhance the learning process.
