Nursing Competency

            Learner development and socialization was the most outstanding competency (Christensen & Simmons, 2019). Typically, instructors must comprehend how each student wants to learn to customize individual and collective delivery. Fortunately, teachers have a variety of approaches to pick from, including kinesthetic and reading and writing. They also have the option of sticking to one strategy or combining several to establish effective delivery. Moreover, educators must find the most appropriate style to deliver different subject matters while promoting learners' socialization.

            Thus, socialization is a vital component of nursing teaching and learning since the field depends significantly on team effort. Nurses develop close workplace relationships which also extend to the social world. Consequently, professionals develop inter-dependence and collaboration, which improves cohesion and collective productivity in the workplace. Cohesive teams work under predetermined codes and unwritten rules that increase trust and dependence. Therefore, educators must emphasize the importance of socialization and teamwork to learners to help them network (Lee & Yang, 2019). Teachers must create a conducive environment that encourages students to raise questions and address various inconsistencies derailing the learning process.
