Abstract
A gap exists between didactic theory and clinical practice when nursing students learn clinical calculations. Educators can provide innovative classroom teaching methods using practical mathematics to decrease this gap. In the simulation lab, students complete weight-based calculations and then administer medications as part of medication skills stations. Math assessments in the psychomotor domain promote application of didactic math content. Implementing math assessments that include a hands-on component facilitates the students' abilities to take math out of the classroom and apply it in clinical practice, enabling the educator to minimize disparities found when students have different mathematics backgrounds.
