Problems facing nursing students related to their new updated syllabus. I am telling you about a well-recognised medical university not only in Pakistan but also its worth is also present all over the world. The name of this university is University of Health Sciences. The University of Health Sciences, Lahore, is one of the top universities in Lahore, Pakistan. Its rank is 701-720 in the world ranking. We compare it with other universities that are present in Lahore. The ranking of the University of Lahore is 56951 in all of the world. The ranking of Superior University of Lahore is 1501 in the world. We see that UHS is dominant in both of these universities.
University of Health Sciences (UHS) is also advanced in their academic records and in the research field. Many students are still studying under this university, and many students studied, and they completed their degrees from this university. My main focus is to tell you about the advancements that occur in the nursing field. University of Health Sciences (UHS) gives more advancements in the nursing field. After taking a nursing degree from this university, they have enough capabilities that they take care of and manage the conditions of patients in a comfortable way.
Many people know there is an annual system of examination at the University of Health Sciences. It remains an annual system until 2023, and then they want to change it into the semester system. The vice chancellor of this university held a meeting. Many professors, assistant professors, and principals of various colleges go and participate in the meeting. They decided some advancement give us in our education system. We change it into a semester system that already exists in the form of an annual system. Some give their views that the already existing annual system is best, but many say that we should change it into the semester system.
At last, they agree at this point of view that we change it into the semester system. Then they think about the syllabus of the students, especially for the nursing field. They decide as we change it into the semester system, the syllabus also changed into the semester system. This creates major problems for both the nursing students and the teachers. They give some advancement in the syllabus. When they are giving advancements, they forget how we manage this advancement. All of the advancements related to the new syllabus and semester system occur in just 2 months.
Any country of the world gives advancement in their field. They give advancement according to their strategy. They first research, analyse, and then implement them in their institute. Of course, this requires some time; not only did they do it in just 2 months. They get benefit from them; in this way their institute progresses. They give benefits to the students, not create major problems for the students. They want to give advancements in their academic field. They change their syllabus every 6 to 12 months. They held many meetings about this topic. They add some new research in their syllabus.
After completing the procedure, they give the book into their market. They just do not give the different authors names and compile them in one book so that students do not face major problems. They give the order that your syllabus change. The students have easy access to their content.They study them easily. The professors easily teach their students. On the other hand, our country’s institutes are different. They change their syllabus, creating the problems for the students and teachers. Because, when changing their syllabus, just give the names of authors and outlines of course content. Only for one book, they give the minimum three authors names. Their books are different from each other. All the content is not present in just one author’s book.
I am giving you information about one of the famous universities that is present in Lahore. Almost all the government nursing colleges are running under the University of Health Sciences. About 32 private nursing colleges are running under the University Of Health Sciences. One university that is running too much nursing college does not have enough time to compile their new content in one book.
Every year, 8000 nursing students give exams under this university.You see many nursing students graduate under this university. Therefore, management of the university adopts a good strategy for any new changes. Many nursing students’ futures are concerned with you. You are taking good steps; definitely give the benefit to both the nursing students and the university. You take steps without any strategies, and then it is bad both for the students and the university. You are changing the nursing syllabus. It is a major step that you are doing.
The vice chancellor should see himself. You are changing the nursing syllabus. It is a big step that you are doing. You are just giving the author’s name and the course content. For one subject, at minimum you are giving three authors names whose books are different. For some books, they are giving more than 10 authors names of books. In one book, total content is not present. You are running an international standard university; then it is your responsibility to compile it in one book. Then every subject of the compiled book gives the market so that students have easy access to them. They cover their syllabus easily. But you are doing opposites that create major problems for not only students but also for teachers. You see students are already paying their fees. They can buy three authors books only for one book.
Some subjects that their syllabus covers in one year you are giving just 6 months and also increasing the course content. You are changing the syllabus, and then designing it according to the time. You are giving too much syllabus on how students cover it only in 6 months, where all course content is not present in one book. Then students don’t have any option but to go to the AI tool, like ChatGPT and Meta AI, to find answers to their course content. This is totally wrong with our education system.
This gives opportunities for the Meta AI authors that compile books according to the outline through the assistance of the AI tool. Although, I hope it is good for the students and our institute. I am thankful to the management of the UHS and the vice chancellor if they wonder and change some amendments in this outline. They do not bring changes but compile books according to their syllabus. My purpose of writing is not to criticise any person, but my aim is to highlight the problems of the nursing students.
