Program Description
The National League for Nursing and the NLN Foundation for Nursing Education are pleased to announce the third NLN Scholarly Writing Retreat. We are excited to bring the retreat to Indianapolis at the Indiana University School of Nursing this year.
If you have recently completed a research study or innovative project but have not had the time to craft an article for publication, this workshop is for you. The NLN Scholarly Writing Retreat is designed to help nurse educators enhance writing skills and disseminate research findings and other work in scholarly publications. By the end of the retreat, our goal is for each participant to have a complete, edited paper ready for submission to a scholarly journal.
Marilyn H. Oermann, PhD, RN, FAAN, ANEF, professor and division chair at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill School of Nursing, will lead the retreat. Dr. Oermann has contributed to nursing education through her many books and articles that guide faculty practice. Her books include Writing for Publication in Nursing, Evaluation and Testing in Nursing Education, Clinical Teaching Strategies in Nursing, and the Annual Review of Nursing Education.
Joining Dr. Oermann will be Leslie Block, managing editor of Nursing Education Perspectives, the NLN's research journal. Ms. Block was previously the managing editor of Nursing Research and senior editor of MCN, The American Journal of Maternal/Child Nursing.
The retreat will take place from May 14-16, 2010. The program will begin at 3:00 pm on Friday and end by 12:00 pm on Sunday. All meals will be provided, beginning with dinner on Friday and ending with breakfast on Sunday. Group and individual sessions will be scheduled at varied times throughout the retreat, and ample time and privacy will be available for writing.
Participants can expect to earn 1.70 CEUs.
This program addresses the following Core Competencies for Nurse Educators©:
