Nurse educator resource site

Dr. Barksdale spoke about VoiceThread at the 2009 iNet conference. It's an excellent way to promote classroom interaction.

Copyright issues were one of the topics at the iNet conference this year. And, DUSON will hold a Teaching Conversation with the same speaker, Kevin Smith, in January.

Another example of using Jing, a previous iNET featured tool, to give student feedback. Jing is a free and simple to use screenrecording application, which is perfect for recording short 'screencasts', tutorials, instructions, and annoucements.

I did similar screen casts when I taught graphic design. It was so much better than textually critiquing something very visual...and it took less time. The students liked the video because it helped them "See" the things they could improve upon and they liked hearing the tone of the voice which helped eliminate any misinterpretations of the critique...meaning I wasn't out to get them.

Flip Video Camera in Education

iNet has done a featured tool article on Flip Video focusing on a project that Dr. Nancy Short did with her Doctor of Nursing Practice Health Policy students. This article gives more information and project ideas abou the Flip Video at an elementary school level. (We in higher ed have a lot to learn from those teachers!)

A search results page for a search engine for free online courses.

I wonder if any of our nursing schools have open courses. Could we put the iNET CEU and IOM modules here?

A good introduction to Second Life from Diane Skiba, nursing professor and 2010 iNET conference keynote speaker.

Excellent ideas for using VoiceThread in the classroom. Prof. D. Barksdale spoke about her experience with VoiceThread at the 2009 iNET conference

This toolkit contains resources related to computer and information literacy

This is a fantastic resource that directly relates to the mission of http://www.inet-nurse.org. I feel confident in following the lead of the NLN in preparing technology savvy nurses and nurse educators. One idea was to establish a 'computer drivers license' - check on the site: http://www.icdlus.org/ Looking forward to implementing something like this.
