@IngrahamAngle You are all so ignorant - Fauci is judgement call Ok - he can mandate that for me? MY choice My own doctor who says masks don’t work and has Ivermectin standing by if any of her patients get sick - geez what is with you guys - do what you want! It’s a free country- oh wait......

This is a great article about the inadequate preparedness of under grad students to take on informatics in online graduate education. Perhaps informatics should be part of a core curriculum in undergrad programs #DistEd534 https://t.co/oJ0xHUMjfH

Students need good writing skills to be successful online- most of their learning is expressed in discussion posts or is written APA papers. The more sophisticated the writing the better the point is made and the more successful the student #DistEd534 https://t.co/kd3iZkSnRV

This is a great article if you are struggling with the sudden invasion of technology in your teaching career. This study found that over time, most teachers become confident they are providing quality education online #DistEd534 https://t.co/BWrY5OV31U

With COVID bringing out the best and the worst in our society, this healthy competition is definitely needed #DistEd534

This is an interesting read that makes us think why choose one university over another. They call it the 6Ps basically the who what when where of why you should choose one school over another what do they have that others don't. Learn where?

[Lyn O’Brien @bestestteach]

Especially with children and adolescents, the need to belong far outweighs the need to learn. As online educators we must combine the two #DistEd534

Whether you are three or 30 learning and having that feeling of belonging could go far in an online environment. Learn these ways that can honestly apply to any age of online learning. Using an app like Kahoot helps people of any age learn.

First we need to figure out the difference! With commonality to the Internet, e-learning, virtual, blended, and online learning all operate in a slightly different way #DistEd534

Do you see a education class on virtual teaching being added to the course list? I bet its coming #DistEd534

Don’t give up on feedback - consider the learning glitches a call out for clarity- provide creative and appropriate feedback until the AHA moment comes! #DistEd534

This is a great article on how to appropriately provide feedback to students and best ways to word information to keep students interest. Feedback provided in the right manner could be the biggest motivator.

Maybe we will come full circle and go back to nursing schools operating from hospitals. #DistEd534

[Mandi @Mandi57489747]

I have heard that many recent nursing grads had to suddenly transition courses online due to COVID and several even opted to graduate early to help at the bedside. What impact do you think this could have on the future of nursing education? #DistEd534

[Lyn O’Brien @bestestteach]

We must remember that nursing is not an online profession! Nurse/patient interaction cannot be taught without a nurse and a patient - something’s gotta give so we can keep getting new nurses out there! DistEd534

#DistEd534 we provided a therapeutic communication training (w/ our mental health partners)after realizing during in person clinicals the students lacked confidence in their abilities. VSIM is a great alternative but can hinder advancing communication skills in our students

@nori_zapata Invaluable advice - I have always depended on body language to tell me if I am in need of a change in subject, a joke, or becoming a little more pithy. So hard online and worst is a WebEx to big to accommodate cameras. Lack of immediate feedback is tough. #DistEd534

[Lyn O’Brien @bestestteach]

@nori_zapata Hi Nori, great article - clever marketing staff taking advantage of the societal situation - I think this on mass online fever diminishes the true value of quality online education in the right place and situation - let online shine in the right part of the sky #DistEd534

[Lyn O’Brien @bestestteach]

@LeslieMiccio Hey Leslie - I’m new to all of it. I appreciate this article that helps catch up the tech to the teaching expertise - a good teacher needs to be able to go from whiteboard to Jamboard! #DistEd234

[Lyn O’Brien @bestestteach]

@JennHoltHardy Hi Jenn, So excellent - nothing worse than reading a PP except reading one online! Students can read - they need our experience and expertise to pull it together not put them to sleep. Take it to the next level and KISS for sure #DistEd534

[Lyn O’Brien @bestestteach]

@cindy4class I am holding out that we do not have to reimagine our passion - Online education has a specific and invaluable place in education, and I am grateful we had it as a go to -As social beings - students still need some FTF and I will teach them! #DistEd534

[Lyn O’Brien @bestestteach]

@MichelinaPaulek Hi Michelina, I agree we need to be more creative recruiting great nurses to teach future nurses - catch 22 - we need to encourage clinicians to get higher education so they can improve higher education - great podcast #DistEd534

This is about both online learning going up and virtual simulation increasing. I think we need to proceed cautiously. Just because we can doesn’t mean we should. #DistEd534 Leaders From Top Nursing Schools Predict More Online Learning, Simulations in 2021 https://t.co/bzmfuTjiHM
