Description
This innovative workbook/CD-ROM package helps bridge the gap between the classroom and the real world by teaching students about clinical
settings and critical thinking before they actually start clinical rotations – making the transition from nursing student to caregiver
a smoother process. A guided learning experience, VCE features textbook reading assignments that correspond with the CD-ROM and workbook
activities. The workbook acts as a map, guiding students through the CD-ROM as they care for patients in the virtual hospital, making
connections between what they experience in the virtual hospital and what they learn in the textbook. Throughout each lesson, students
access realistic information resources essential to patient care, resulting in a true-to-life, hands-on learning experience.
