@Michell71587469 With effective facilitation, online technology has opened the doors for a myriad of possibilities. Once a stark critic of โalways learning from a PCโ, I have come to appreciate the opportunities of information, enrichment, & connectivity it brings. #DistEd534
Apprehensive about your required #pathophysiology course?

@CandiceBSNRN@Marievc1946 I have done group work before on online with my IBCLC program. With programs like GoogleDocs, it made for easy access. I think you just have to be upfront about schedule, and plan in the beginning, rather than trying to do it week to week. In person group work was worse for me!
@Michell71587469 There are multiple aspects of a nursing program that can make it a successful program. It should not be based only on first-time NCLEX rates but on faculty preparation, pedagogical practices, ability to facilitate success among diverse learners (OโLynn, 2017). #DistEd534
@Michell71587469 Socratic questioning should be encouraged among peers. It facilitates more interaction & critical thinking from faculty, it could open doors to a deeper conversation between peers as well, thus possibly increasing the learning moment. What do you think?๐#DistEd534
@Acabralmsn2022 Student engagement with their learning environment, peers, and instructors is vital to their learning outcomes (O'Neil et al., 2019). Serembus and Riccio (2019) highlight that the more a student is engaged with the course, the more successful they will be. #DistEd534
What an exciting program to have at the tips of our fingers as educators. This is a great tool to use to help supplement concepts and clinical skills virtually! #DistEd534

@candyburcheri This was a great article. Visualizing the process of a stressful situation is helpful, but being able to practice and act out what you would 'do in that situation' is an awesome way to practice interaction with patients. Simulations are a great time for this! #DistEd534
@Minervalearna According to Billings and Halstead (2019) gamification is an excellent way for students to put into practice the content they learn, as it increases engagement and retention. It is recommended to use reinforcement rather than an introduction to new content. #DistEd534
@CandiceBSNRN 1st-year nursing students had positive experiences with social media in their courses. Twitter was utilized and seen as engaging and valuable to share information. (Price et al., 2018). Personally, Twitter has valuable in discovering interesting articles #DistEd534
An online learning environment can support a flipped classroom method, which would support a concept-based curriculum. Concept-based curriculums move away from content-heavy information & focus on application of knowledge & concepts (Baron, 2017) #DistEd534
The use of mobile technology for readily accessible learning content such as skills instruction videos is beneficial for students. It has been shown to have an improvement in learning confidence, skills, and knowledge (Chen et al., 2021) #DistEd534
@candyburcheri High-fidelity simulations that include reflection, observation, & debriefing have the potential to help new grad RNs practice life-like situations they otherwise would not experience (Abelsson & Bisholt, 2017). Is that practice enough though? #DistEd534
@Minervalearna Fascinating article! The preparation of novice nurse educators is essential in online instruction, whether they were teaching face-to-face prior or new to teaching in general. New teaching skills and communication skills are needed (Pitts & Christenbery, 2019) #DistEd534
The use of learning teams in online education can be a valuable tool in fostering the professional development of nursing students through the improvement of communication, teamwork, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills (Nichols et al., 2016) #DistEd534
Understanding which engagement strategies are important to students is helpful to provide an effective online course. For example, seen as not important by faculty, the posting of checklists and due dates were highly valued by students (Bolliger & Martin, 2018) #DistEd534
