Education Barriers" to Nursing Education
Lesson plan is an essential aspect of education. It ensures that training is consistent
and of good quality. It helps instructors tailor good content targeting the audience and allows
clear communication and understanding. It provides active learning engagement and will
enable instructors to perform assessments and evaluations. A structured approach helps
address barriers in nursing education linked with communication and listening skills. Having
clear and attainable objectives ensures a comprehensive learning experience for nursing
students.
Main Objectives
1. Understand and apply effective verbal and non-verbal communication techniques in
nursing education.
2. Develop active listening skills for improved learning and patient care.
Sub-objectives
1. Identify the principles of effective verbal communication in nursing education.
2. Recognize the significance of non-verbal communication cues in patient interactions.
3. Explain the importance of active listening in nursing education and patient care.
4. Demonstrate active listening techniques during simulated patient scenarios

Formative and summative assessments cannot be avoided in any education program.
They are essential components that ensure that education processes run smoothly. This
nursing education lesson plan offers distinct purposes regarding educational barriers to
effective communication and active listening. Formative assessment occurs throughout the
lesson because it's an ongoing process. In most cases, it will allow me as a teacher to gauge
the student's understanding and application of communication techniques in real time (Bhat &
Bhat, 2019). This will entail different strategies like peer discussions, questioning, and
observations. I actively monitor students ' progress during class teachings and role-play
exercises. Whether they are participating in discussions lively or demonstrating an
understanding of the principles of effective communication and active listening, through this
10
formative assessment, I will be able to offer immediate feedback to students, which will help
them adjust and get more guidance on areas they are not performing well.
Summative assessment: summative assessment will take place at the end of a lesson.
According to Dolin et al. (2018), summative assessment comprehensively evaluates students'
general knowledge and skills. Summative assessment not only allows students to grasp the
concepts but also allows them to put them into action. In this lesson plan, summative
assessment covers two components: written test and observation of active listening in clinical
simulation. The written test will be used to test the student's understanding of the theoretical
aspects of communication and active listening. This will help them acquire the necessary
knowledge. In the clinical simulation, students will demonstrate functional listening skills
and provide practical evaluation. As the instructor, I will observe the students and determine
how well they can apply what we have learned in class to a real-life scenario. How can they
mirror situations they will likely face in their nursing practices?
In conclusion, this is a comprehensive lesson plan that focuses on overcoming
education barriers in nursing. It is designed to give students a structured and engaging
learning experience. It offers students the essential skills to overcome barriers and enhance
their efficiency as healthcare professionals. The main objectives are practical verbal and non-
verbal communication techniques and active listening skills. These are essential during their
interactions with the patients. Formative and summative assessments will ensure continuous
feedback, adjustments, simulations, and test to evaluate students understanding.
