DATE & TIME

DESCRIPTION

The AACNs new Essentials (2021) moves curriculum development towards a competency-based model for skill acquisition.

Feedback on the new assignment indicated student satisfaction with recorded content discussions, citing usefulness in helping them apply course content to real-world organizational management problems and expressing their preference for recorded content discussions over traditional post/respond-to-post discussion board assignments.
