 couldn't put it down, 2008-11-10
OK, I had to get it for a grad school nursing class. But actually, I was impressed with the content and the readability. Great book to keep, read, and, dare I say, actually use?

 Exellent resource for CNE Certification Exam, 2008-07-01
I am currently studying for the NLN CNE certificaion exam. This book, Teaching in Nursing: A Guide for Faculty (Billings, Teaching in Nursing: A Guide for Faculty) was recommended as a resource and it has been very helpful in preparation for the exam. It is not only an excellent resource for the exam, but also an excellent resource for the novice nurse educator. For those of us in nursing education for a number of years, this book is excellent at refreshing us and providing new ideas and innovations in nursing. I hardily suggest this book to anyone in or seeking to begin educating nurses.
