@JohnSmith4sho @NurseEdinPrac I enjoy seeing this type of testing in online learning settings. I feel that this will more adequately assess where students are at as they get closer to taking the NCLEX (being that it is also in the same format) #DistEd534
@CheyenneRNedu The advances of technology are amazing for online learning. Similarly I have seen the advances in the use of virtual reality for surgeon training prior to entering the operating room in real life. Very cool! #DistEd534
@LisaNiescier Completely agree. Introduction to subjects in an online format are great. The real learning will come from putting hands on a patient in the situation and dealing with variables that can arise. #DistEd534
@HeatherM728RN@sparrce In what ways do you think this could be improved with our line learners? More clinical time? More shared experiences? #DistEd534
@HeatherM728RN What forms of debriefing do you feel work the best, especially in an online setting? I feel that utilizing a video chat experience could be the most beneficial vs online discussion posts or individually. Video sessions would likely provide a more robust discussion. #DistEd534
@lori_kerley@NEjournalonline Very important thing to remember for our nursing students in an advancing technological age. With so many different platforms for learning (online as well as in person) we can offer many different simulated experiences to our students to be ready for the real thing. #DistEd534
@HeatherM728RN Online learning has so many benefits but for a profession such as nursing it cannot teach everything that will be needed in the profession. True hands on experience will only teach some of the needed skills. I feel that clinical experience needs to be a large piece! #DistEd534
@MonicaLR1105 What a great use of online learning! End of life care is such a delicate and important part of nursing. It can be difficult to frequently get these experiences in real-time. Simulated scenarios would be a huge benefit to our online learners. #DistEd534
@HeatherM728RN Absolutely! In an asynchronous learning environment, documentation is likely to be one area that would not be as adequately learned compared to traditional learning. Simulations with EHR types are key to preparing nurses for such an important piece of being a nurse. #DistEd534
@HeatherM728RN Heather, I completely agree. Do you find that the nursing education experience can be adequately taught from an online perspective. I feel that in combination with assigned learning, group work, and clinical experience it can provide a great platform for nursing. #DistEd534
Thoughts on group learning in a #distancelearning setting? I feel that group learning creates a more collaborative effort in what can feel like a less personal setting. It also brings different viewpoints and backgrounds that can facilitate better learning! #DistEd534
There can be many different ways of learning. Each type of learning will be more beneficial for different types of learners. In a distance learning, higher education setting, which type of learning do you prefer for your students or as a learner yourself? #DistEd534
What platform do you think helps students to learn best? Is it through discussion posts, YouTube videos, Google docs, writing papers, etc. There are many ways to reach students. Having them interact through multiple platforms can allow for success with various styles. #DistEd534
As professors, how do we remove bias from our assessments? Bias significantly affects outcomes of testing for our students. We must do our best to look for areas that might skew results such as learning disabilities and cultural differences. The field must be equal. #DistEd534
Something to consider with #distancelearning. Online education offers many benefits but can also cause some difficulties in some cases. Should we allow more flexibility for certain situations for our students? Or more of a cases by case basis? Some may need more time. #DistEd534
Deadlines are a building block of a college course. But since the pandemic, more students have been struggling to meet them. When it comes to assignment due dates, how much flexibility is too much? https://t.co/l2gXuw6gXZ
Burnout is severely impacting our nurses. Teaching our students on the signs of it and different ways to combat it are key. Allowing open forums and avoiding judgment are two ways to start. Exercise, meditation, making set personal time are also ways to try. #DistEd534
Inclusivity is key in #distancelearning. Nurses come from all different backgrounds and this must be taken into account when teaching. We need to remember to account for all abilities and areas of bias that could affect how our students take in our curriculum #DistEd534
We cannot overstate the importance of educating our future nurses on identifying and combatting workplace violence. It can come from a patient, family member, or coworker. Teaching these techniques are a must to remove/minimize these incidents from our profession. #DistEd534
A good session of discussion on how to push nursing forward using new technology and practices. Our next generation of nurses need bedside skills as well as the ability to practice for any situation in a simulation setting. It can apply to #distancelearning also. #DistEd534
College of Nursing faculty talked research, health equity, teaching using simulation technology and community practices at their breakout session #ru50
An update on new ways to continue educating our next generation of nurses on new standards! It is important to strive for our best both with in person and #distancelearning. As tech advances we must continue growing with it. #DistEd534
How are schools of #nursing revising their curriculums to meet the new standards outlined in the New #AACNEssentials? What tools and strategies have been helpful in advancing their work? See how AACN member schools are implementing the new Essentials: https://t.co/tcwetw0wop
