Learning also takes place if nursing students
are given the opportunity to practice real nursing
by doing. Task participation can be referred
to as students offered opportunities to learn and
getting involved in providing holistic patient care
and not merely doing a list of tasks (Henderson
et al. 2012). Grealish and Ranse (2009) argue
that task participation and accomplishment facilitates
learning than mere application of theory
to practice. However, if students are able to participate
and accomplish a task that is challenging
then theory is been translated into practice
therefore, learning takes place.
