September 06, 2024

Journal of Nursing Education

Assistant Professor of Nursing Dr. Jan Oosting recently published "Translanguaging in the Undergraduate Nursing Classroom: An Educational Innovation" in the Journal of Nursing Education. The article highlights a study on the positive impact of translanguaging in an undergraduate nursing classroom. Translanguaging, a pedagogical practice that allows students to use their strongest written language for assignments, was successfully piloted in a nursing elective course at CUNY SPS. Three students participated in the initiative and reported that the experience was empowering and enhanced their writing. The study suggests that nursing educators (and others) should consider incorporating translanguaging in their courses to support linguistic diversity and improve student engagement and comprehension in academic settings.
