Multi-course sequential learning (MCSL), a model for integrating content throughout the curriculum, is described using ethics education as a prototype. In this model, content is presented via a vertical course, with units embedded in existing courses across various levels of the nursing program, which is designed to provide coherent organization of content, visibility, and accountability, and to prevent gaps and unnecessary duplication. This article describes the process of developing an Ethics MCSL, which is being implemented and evaluated with support from a three-year grant from the Fund for the Improvement of Postsecondary Education (FIPSE).
