The 90-minute lesson plan aims to educate nursing students about the integumentary system. It will begin with an introduction that poses questions about the body's largest organ and how appearance relates to health. The discussion section will cover the functions and components of the integumentary system such as skin, subcutaneous tissue, and accessory structures. Physiology and common diseases like burns will also be discussed. To check understanding, students will complete a 10-item quiz. The lesson will conclude by summarizing the key points about the integumentary system.
