Partnering to Develop Online Teaching Skills for Master of Science in Nursing Education Students.

BACKGROUND
The continued growth of online programs in nursing education creates a demand for faculty who are familiar with the best practices in online pedagogy. However, the opportunity to become familiar with, and then apply, these best practices is often not available to students enrolled in Master of Science in Nursing (MSN) nursing education programs.


METHOD
An innovative partnership with The Center for Instructional Design's Teaching Online Academy over the past few years has provided the opportunity for students in the MSN Nursing Education program at The University of Texas at El Paso to learn and then apply best practices in online pedagogy.


RESULTS
Over the past 1.5 years, 50 students have participated and provided highly enthusiastic feedback about the experience.


CONCLUSION
The results of the partnership were beneficial to participants in both the Nursing Education program and the Teaching Online Academy. The process could be easily adapted to other settings. [J Nurs Educ. 2019;58(4):240-242.].
