Abstract Objectives To explore attitudes about adding genomic content to an undergraduate nursing curriculum. Genomic knowledge is essential to nursing education, but challenges exist for curriculum innovation. Few countries have guiding documents from national nursing organizations on genomic competencies for practice or education. Information on attitudes about genomics may provide guidance for curriculum development. Methods Nineteen undergraduate nursing students and two faculty from a school of nursing with two sites in western Canada participated. Five focus groups and four interviews were conducted using a semi-structured focus group guide. Data were analysed using thematic analysis. Coding was inductive. Results Characteristics of participants, eight key themes, and four future focal areas were identified to guide future research and curriculum development. Conclusions Global development of genomics-informed curricula will require a focus on increasing knowledge, defining scope and role, increasing visibility of role models, and preparing to implement precision health.

This is due to partnership with hospitals has not been supported by adequate policies and other factors. Objectives: The purpose of this study was to identify the appropriate model in improving student competency in a clinical study. Design used in this study was observational study with cross-sectional approach. Methods: The research design used cross-sectional approach with involving five hospitals (Fatmawati Jakarta Hospital, Hasan Sadikin Bandung Hospital, Kariadi Semarang Hospital, Sardjito Yogyakarta Hospital, Soetomo Surabaya Hospital) and five universities namely Muhammadiyah Jakarta University, Padjajaran Bandung University, Gadjah Mada Jogjakarta University, Diponegoro Semarang University,  Airlangga Surabaya University. Three hundred and eighty-four participants were recruited from these sites. Data were analyzed  using multiple logistic regression. Results: The result showed that partnership contributed 3,36 times, the patient variations 2,96 times, job description of clinical educator 2,30 times, a role model 2,28 times, expertise of faculty educator  2,08 times, toward the achievement of student competency in clinical study. Conclusions: It can be concluded that partnership aspect, the patient variation, job description of clinical educator, role model, expertise of faculty educator, and level of education have significant role to improve the achievement of student competency in clinical study. The results of this study can be used by nursing educational institutions, hospitals and government to organize nursing education model that has been present for more optimal achievement of student competencies.

The number of international schools is growing, especially in Asia. This presents competitive challenges; most obviously for student recruitment and retention. However, demand for places at these schools is also growing. As a result, while international schooling may feel competitive, aggregate economic data show that growing numbers do not axiomatically equate to fierce competition; many schools enjoy benign market pressures. This observation, the paper concludes, encourages a more nuanced view of international school competition across Asia – and of its gold rush conditions.

Social Expectation

From the East Asian social and cultural perspectives and contexts, this study aimed to understand the relationships and behaviors between nursing students’ sense of filial piety and their decision-making behind selecting nursing education as their major. Forty-two traditional-age nursing students (i.e., six men and 36 women) at their final year of a bachelor’s degree program in nursing were invited. The findings indicated that many nursing students disliked their university major and the potential career pathway as a nursing professional, as none of them selected the major based on their choice and interest. The environmental context and family’s recommendations were the major impacts to influence the decision-making process of the participants. The result also indicated that filial piety, parents’ recommendations, and elderly people’s suggestions were the key factors to influence the selections and decisions of university major and career development pathways. The study provided a blueprint for related staff and professionals to create and design career counselling and services for East Asian youths to enable life investment and development.

Graduate Experiences

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to share insights, research findings and discuss key issues related to graduate experiences with transnational nursing education (TNE). Design/methodology/approach The authors used a qualitative approach and sampled national and international nurse graduates to identify challenges and best operating practices in cross-border nursing program facilitation. Findings This research paper has provided a platform for graduates to lend their voices to the promotion of effective cross-border nursing education delivery and suggests that although international collaborations endeavor to maintain high academic standards in TNE, there is still a need to re-engineer, revise and adapt curricular content, learning, teaching and assessment practices to aid the nursing student. Research limitations/implications Identified challenges affecting the facilitation and delivery of cross-border nursing education programs can act as levers to improving service quality of present and future cross-border programs to the nursing student. This will assist future nursing students to recognize culture shock and embrace their decision to pursue nursing. Practical implications The experience of being involved in TNE for nursing students may not be that much different than students of other disciplines. While not able to be generalized to the entire population, the reports by the nursing students in this sample appear to be valuable and worthwhile to continue supporting and encouraging other TNE opportunities. Originality/value This paper explores cross-border nursing education experiences from national and international perspectives. The authors were able to explore inherent TNE challenges from diverse population and cultural backgrounds.
