Annual Reports & Administrative Documents

Executive Summary

While Philadelphia University’s faculty members have embraced these Nexus Learning pedagogies that facilitate active and collaborative learning, the built environment of our traditional classrooms, and their associated technologies, have often limited the effectiveness. Philadelphia University began an initiative aiming to radically transform existing traditional learning spaces into intentionally designed learning environments that aim to minimize the physical and technological limitations of some of our traditional classrooms and maximize the beneficial evidence-based approaches of active, collaborative, real world …

Use Of The Delphi Technique In Instrument Development To Assess Debriefing Facilitation, E. Adel Herge, Otd, Otr/L, Susan Wainwright, Pt, Phd, Jennifer Saylor, Phd, Rn, Acns-Bc

This poster describes phase one of a pilot study to develop and evaluate an instrument that assesses the effectiveness of a debriefing facilitator. The instrument is based on the current scientific literature and was tested to establish reliability and validity. In phase one, the Delphi Technique was selected as it has been shown to be …
