Did you practice nursing xe2x80x98by the bookxe2x80x99? Now, consider how you make decisions today. How have your clinical experiences fostered a greater depth of knowledge and critical thinking?This weekxe2x80x99s Learning Resources explore skill development and levels of knowledge acquisition based on clinical experience. For example, Benner suggests that as a nurse gains more experience, knowledge and skill level increases. Nurses move from novicesxe2x80x94making decisions based on rulesxe2x80x94to experts who are able to see connections between actions and outcomes using critical thinking. This Discussion focuses on the role of critical thinking in nursing practice and the connection between critical thinking, clinical competence, and scholarship.xc2xa0xc2xa0xc2xa0xc2xa0xc2xa0xc2xa0xc2xa0xc2xa0xc2xa0xc2xa0xc2xa0xc2xa0xc2xa0xc2xa0xc2xa0xc2xa0xc2xa0xc2xa0xc2xa0xc2xa0xc2xa0xc2xa0xc2xa0xc2xa0xc2xa0xc2xa0xc2xa0xc2xa0xc2xa0xc2xa0xc2xa0xc2xa0xc2xa0xc2xa0xc2xa0xc2xa0xc2xa0xc2xa0xc2xa0xc2xa0xc2xa0xc2xa0xc2xa0xc2xa0xc2xa0xc2xa0 To prepare:Review the Learning Resources focusing on critical thinking and Bennerxe2x80x99s interpretation of the Novice to Expert theory.Reflect on how critical thinking is used in clinical practice. How does critical thinking relate to, or support, clinical competence?What critical thinking strategies do you use to improve your clinical competence and thus move from novice to expert?Consider the connection between critical thinking, nursing practice, and scholarship.Postxc2xa0your observations on how critical thinking is used in clinical practice (provide examples); how you employ critical thinking strategies to improve clinical competence; and your thoughts on the connections between critical thinking, scholarship, and practice.Support your Discussion assignment with specific resources used in its preparation using APA formatting.
