| How does SIUE support your professional growth or activity as a Teacher-Scholar? "Scholarship is also integral to formal and informal teaching. Whether in the classroom or during one-on-one conversations with students, scholarship becomes one with the teaching of the discipline. To prepare nurses to work in the future health care arena, one must not only practice life long learning, but be able to motivate and teach students how to be life long learners and continually strive for excellence." What is a unique aspect of your professional life that enhances your service to the academic or greater community?"Perhaps one of the most rewarding service opportunities is my volunteer work since 1979 with the American Lung Association of Missouri, now the American Lung Association Central States. I participated in multiple community and professional educational programs, grant writing, and served as a member of the executive committee for the organization, including Past President." "Since 1973 I have been involved with the North America Nursing Diagnosis Association-International. This group is active in nursing language development, especially the impact of this language on international issues and the electronic health record. I have had the privilege to be a charter member of this organization and served in many roles, including Treasurer and a member of the Board of Directors. In addition, I’ve chaired or co-chaired 4-international conferences" |
