Staff development specialists teach learners who represent a variety of cultures and cultural diversity is a valued component of our society. It is important that educators consider what effects culture has on learning.
How do you logically incorporate cultural diversity in program planning? It is not easy to add more content to an orientation program. However, use what you know about learning styles and generational differences to include cultural-diversity education in orientation. The following teaching strategies can all be used to provide basic information:
- Role-play
- Face-to-face discussion
- Distance learning
Additionally, be sure to include information about how cultural differences manifest themselves in patients, visitors, and colleagues.
Editor's note: The above excerpt is from the online course "Nursing CE Series: Successful Strategies for Training Your Nursing Staff." For more information on this and other courses, visit www.hcprofessor.com.
