Which teaching approach would be effective for informing a patient of an emergency appendectomy quizlet?

ANS: Patient D (Teaching tool - Models)

Nurses may use actual equipment, objects, or models to teach concepts or skills. Models are useful when real objects are too small, large, complicated, or unavailable. Computer instruction uses programmed instruction in which the computer stores response patterns for learners and selects further lessons on the basis of these patterns. Computer instruction is not a substitute for a demonstration using real equipment. Printed and online materials are written teaching tools available in print or online as pamphlets, booklets, or brochures. This method is ideal for understanding complex concepts and relationships but is not a substitute for a demonstration using real equipment. Graphs are visual presentations of numeric data. They are represented as bar, circle, or line graphs. Graphs help learners quickly grasp the information about a single concept, but they are not a substitute for a demonstration using real equipment.
