TEACHING PLAN ON BARRIER NURSING AND INFECTION CONTROL1
Part 1: introduction
To keep a patient away from infectious diseases it is necessary to reduce the hospital-associated infections in patients and avoid
transmission to the hospital staffs and doctors. Barrier nursing is practiced with patients with infection that requires isolation and therefore a
room with constant lamination is used for the patient and staffs should not come in contact with the patient directly (Guptill, 2015). Effective
assessment of learners by their peers on this topic is required to make them understand purpose of this learning and its implementation. Peers
need to provide feedback to their learners to understand the correct assessment decision which will help them improve and gain self-confidence.
Learning plan is required by the peers to make the nurse students understand their learning goal and keep a track of the student’s progress
(Ramm, Thomson & Jackson, 2015).
Learning theories can be applied to teach the students which include behaviourism in which learners behaviour towards the teaching
influence their performance, cognitive in which learners knowledge and understanding of the teaching through various teaching skills will
increase their learning ability and constructive theory which emphasizes on the activity during knowledge building of the learner (Aliakbari,
Parvin, Heidari, & Haghani, 2015). Teaching requires several learning styles such as visual effects including pictures, videography, diagrams;
verbal including understanding through writing or speaking, reflective where the student learn by thiking on his own and active where students
perform tasks in groups (Mangold et al., 2018)

1 Evaluating
case studies
Providing student with little
information one at a time to allow
them to execute their actions
depending on the information they
have received at a given time.
30 mins each day The content of case study contains real life scenarios of the nurse
educators that is relatable for other student nurses. The purpose is
to allow them evolve into a responsibilities of nurse educator and
learn about issues (Peery, 2015).
