CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORK

The independent variable in the study is the behaviors of clinical instructors in terms of

teaching students while the dependent variable of the study is the learning response among the

Level III students who are the extraneous variables. These two variables interact with each other

in which one of them is stimulus and the other one is the response; the third or last variable

which is considered extraneous may affect the interaction of the stimulus and response.

STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM

1) What are the clinical teaching behaviors exhibited by nursing professors in accordance to

three learning domains namely a)knowledge, b)skills and c)attitudes?

2) What are the learning responses of students?

CLINICAL TEACHING BEHAVIOR

STUDENT’S LEARNING RESPONSE

EXTRANEOUS VARIABLES

LEVEL III STUDENTS

You need to establish your CF how you will you measure this

You need to defense this & you need to show in your CF how you will measure it

You have to discuss the interrelating at this variable.

Using the idea (concept) you for from your theory of Social

3) What are the effects of students with regards to the clinical teaching behaviors?

HYPOTHESIS

There is an effect between the clinical teaching behaviors of faculty in the learning response of Level III students.SIGNIFICANCE OF THE STUDY

The researchers believe that this study will help the nursing profession in the field of education,

practice and research. In nursing education, this will help nursing students understand the effects

of their professors’ clinical teaching behavior in a student-teacher relationship, as well as their

clinical performance. This study is also significant for the reason that nursing student will be

aware of the correlation of their professors’ clinical teaching behavior, whether good or bad to

their response. In terms of nursing practice, it will help nursing professors recognize and give

them a clearer picture on how their clinical teaching behaviors affect students learning response

in the clinical area. And lastly, the nursing research is significant for the future researchers

because this may be used as their reference or basis for related of further study.

SCOPE AND LIMITATION

This study will be conducted among the 85 third year nursing students of UERMMMCI taking

up the clinical enhancement of summer class school year 2013-2014. The researchers will

conduct surveys to know more about clinical teaching behaviors that affect the nursing students

learning.

OPERATIONAL DEFINITION OF TERMS

Clinical Learning- An educational process undergone by the students, who are enrolled to

Clinical Enhancement, Summer Class S.Y. 2013-2014, in incorporating knowledge, skills, and

attitudes gained in their understanding and performance.

Clinical Teaching Behavior- Expressed by the clinical instructions in supervising the student

nurses throughout the Clinical Enhancement course, Summer Class S.Y. 2013-2014.

Clinical Instructor – An educator that is tasked to teach and supervise nursing students which

are enrolled to Clinical Enhancement, Summer Class School Year 2013-2014.

Nursing student – A student nurse that is enrolled to Clinical Enhancement, Summer Class

School Year 2013-2014.

THEORETICAL FRAMEWORK

The theoretical framework of this study is Albert Bandura’s social learning theory. He

generalized out a perspective on learning that representsthe consideration of the personal

characteristics of the learner, behavior patterns, and the environment. Learning is an internal

process that does not necessarily outcome in an immediate alteration in behavior. One of

Bandura’s early advices was that individuals need not to have direct experiences to learn.

Considerable learning occurs hand in hand in taking note of other people’s behavior and what

they have experienced with them. Learning is often a social process; therefore, it is important

for teachers to ascertain what learners perceive about the environment and how they interpret

it (Braungart&Braungart, 2008).

Reciprocal determination is a result of the relationship among the personal factors of the

learner, the environment, and overt behaviour (Bandura, 1974). As the learner connects with

the environment, the personal factors influence motivation to behave or respond in a certain

manner.

Learners experience consequences from the environment, or from one’s own behaviour,

which are interpreted and influence future behaviour. Succeeding experiences with similar

situations are not likely to result in identical interpretation; therefore behaviour, due to the

dynamic and ever-changing interplay of factors, is the very fundamental in this situation.

Is the teacher taken as part of environment. You have to defend this.

So how do you now use this in your study? What concepts proposition in the theory is guide you in the analysis of the research?
