Abstract
During 2 massive open online course sessions in 2020-2021, learners shared lived experiences during the coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) pandemic within a framework of theory-guided online discussion. We analyzed 211 COVID-19-related learner narratives from online discussion boards. Themes included sharing concerns and strategies related to patients separated from loved ones, honoring strengths in self and colleagues, valuing shared support among work colleagues, realizing the importance of self-care, voicing concerns about working conditions, and recognizing the impact of theory-guided shared reflection. Themes reflected personal knowing and attributes related to the American Association of Colleges of Nursing Essentials for Nursing Education.
