@sparrce@dana_gennaria Nearpod sounds like an excellent teaching tool! Pathophysiology was a tough course, but one that all nurses must have a firm understanding. Because educators can create test questions in a low-stake environment, the students can learn without fear of failure. #DistEd534
@dana_gennaria I love the idea of competency-based education. When I have mastered a task, I do not enjoy having to re-prove myself year after year. I love the idea that I can prove I am competent without having to do all the training year after year. #DistEd534
@JanetFierstien I agree with the writer who believes that effective online instructions need to have learners and instructors interacting with each other frequently, having an online learning community, and utilize technology to its fullest. #DistEd534
@dana_gennaria I agree people should bring solutions to their manager if they have a problem. I used to have a manager, and if I brought her an issue, the first thing she would say is, “how do you think we should proceed.” I always made sure I had a solution if I went to her. #DistEd534
@dana_gennaria I agree that flexibility is so important for students. As a working wife and mother, I had to find a way to fit school into my “free” time. Usually this is after 9 when everyone is sleeping, and I wrap up around 2am. This would not be possible in a standard class. #DistEd534
@dana_gennaria Zoom meetings are a great way for students and faculty to interact in a “face to face” environment. American Sentinel University (Post University) offers a “homeroom” course that uses Team. It is like zoom where the interaction is live. It helps to see faculty faces. #DistEd534
@sparrce 4)Although there may be some people who believed COVID did not negatively impact student's social environment, for some it was detrimental. Studies show that COVID caused higher anxiety, distress, depression, and insomnia, and even increased suicidal ideation. #DistEd534
@elainax1hotmai3 Why do nurses always need to be strong? Why are we never expected to have problems with our mental health? It is because of these beliefs that nurses are leaving hospitals in drones! It’s time to take care of the nurses, so they can take care of the patients. #DistEd534
@candyburcheri 2)I absolutely love the idea of being able to utilize evidence based medical apps. It reminds me of when I was younger and would pretend I was a doctor. I never knew if what I did was right or not, but I had fun. With these apps, I can test my knowledge! #DistEd534
@dana_gennaria I admire what President Zelensky is doing for his country. A leader stands not only for their people, but also with them. This is true in nursing as well. My most respected nurse manager, was one who would jump in the trenches with her nurses and help out when needed. #DistEd534
Online learning has many benefits including better access, lifelong learning opportunities, and better preparation for working in an “knowledge based” society. #DistEd543

Online learning can be very beneficial, but also has its problems. These problems include students struggling with working through courses without sitting in class, and educators keeping up with technological expertise. #DistEd543

Communication among instructors and students in online courses is a very important topic that needs to be discussed further to assist students in their learning. #DistEd543

As the demand for distance education grows, many people criticize it for not being engaging. However, when social media is utilized, student engagement increases. #DistEd543

When COVID started, many teachers were thrust into having to teach online courses to facilitate their students learning. As they worked, they realized they needed to change how they taught so the quality of the teaching remained the same. #DistEd543

To assist with furthering their education, many nurses are looking into online programs, which are gaining popularity. Better training = better nurses!

More nurses are retiring and multiple studies confirmed mortality rates decrease on units with BSN educated RNs. Online learning may help to meet the growing demand. #DistEd534
