Facilitation of learning : part 1

Warburton, TD; Houghton, T; Barry, D

Abstract

This article, the fourth in a series of 11, discusses the context for the facilitation of learning. It outlines the main principles and theories for understanding the process of learning, including examples which link these concepts to practice. The practical aspects of using these theories in a practice setting will be discussed in the fifth article of this series. Together, these two articles will provide mentors and practice teachers with knowledge of the learning process, which will enable them to meet the second domain of the Nursing and Midwifery Council’s Standards to Support Learning and Assessment in Practice on facilitation of learning.
