The autonomy that I have within the course.
I have a syllabus that I need to teach to, but I have a lot of autonomy
as to how I present that content.
Certainly, helping students get that kind of that a-ha moment when the light bulb goes on.
And they're, like, now that makes sense to me.
And seeing students from day one, where they're really novices.
They don't know a blood pressure cuff from a stethoscope.
To the point where they graduate, and we're graduating them as advanced beginners.
And how much they've grown over the course of their program.
Being a nursing as a practice discipline,
one of the hardest aspects is keeping up with the changing practice.
Practice, especially in health care, is changing exponentially.
New information is coming out.
So trying to keep up with those practice changes
so that we are teaching the best evidence-based practice that's out there.
Another challenging piece, especially
in the pre-licensure end is the constant changing of what's called the NCLEX.
And that's the national exam that nurses have to take to acquire licensure.
Keeping up with those changes as well, which are dictated by practice as well.
