ISTE requires membership but did listen to the free webinar on digital story telling which i am currently using in the graduate level nursing theory course. Students are assigned to do a 3-5 minute digital story using a nursing theorist. These are due in April, so I'll send you the link once they are completed, i am hoping that they will use quicktime so that i can link the stories into Second life.

Sonya, It appears that the VoiceThread Archives are in the .mov format. HOORAY! Here is a link to the VoiceThread Blog with details: http://voicethread.com/blog/#20080309

If students are required to submit large files (over 20mb), these sites can help!

This is very helpful as I am wondering how large the files might be with the digital storytelling assignment I have for the nursing theory class, and the idea of being able to up load 5MB through filedropper might be my answer.

I agree! My favorite for files under 100mb is http://Drop.io . It's fast, flexible, feature-rich, and FREE!

For the Nurse Educator hoping to incorporate the QSEN competencies into student learning experience, this site lists strategies (submitted by users) to be used in planning.

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!)

Class digital storytelling example from Virginia Tech

Here is an example of a class using a Digital Storytelling class assignment. You can view the classes YouTube channel and see the student created videos.

How are course evaluations handled at your institution? As we look for better assessment and evaluation of our students, perhaps we can look to change how they evaluate us.

LARGE list of collaboration tools - well respected and comprehensive list (as much as an internet list can be)

The courses I found were from the United Kingdom which would help students see a different health care system.

What are you all doing with clickers/educational response systems? Are they worth the financial investment? What do you do with the data after you've collected it from students?

I recently discovered this site. I remind students to double space for APA

This is a short video outlining how staff and students can use Second Life to support teaching, learning and collaborative working.

This Youtube was developed by Chris Keesey at Ohio University. I met him as the 2009 Sloan C conference. This video was designed to promote the use of second life at the Ohio University Second Life Campus; a virtual campus featuring multiple learning and collaboration opportunities for students on the Ohio campus and all over the world. For more information contact: keesey@ohio.edu.

Here you'll find everything you need to start or continue your nursing career, including information on nursing programs, scholarships, and schools.

"The ICU Mind Maps covering the JFICM Fellowship Exam curriculum are in pdf format. They were created by Dr. Paul Young in preparing for the JFICM Fellowship exam in 2007-2008. They are provided free and may be redistributed for educational purposes."

I just finished reviewing these maps and they are wonderful and would be an excellent resource for adult and acute care nurse practitioners. Some would work for undergraduate students, however they are at a high level.

OK, this has my attention ---get ride of the handheld device of the clicker------ For $129 US dollars you can have a campus license and use virtual clickers....no more loosing a device the size of a small calculator--sent this one to my IT folks, you should too.

OK having just USED the clicker today (the kind that get lost or broken), this one is of great interest! Can we find anybody who has actually used this irtual clicker? I'm not in a hurry but am definitely interested. Anyway it would work for online teaching?

This is an interesting post on clickers and one that should be read. The first time I saw clickers used, I was evaluating a junior faculty member and she had many many questions. And I was unsure of the connection of the question with objectives. This article recommends: many things but I will focus on 2: 1. Limit the number of clicker questions to five per class 2.Reserve questions for specific learning outcomes and goals (What do you want to stress? What cognitive skills do you want to develop? What do you want to reinforce?) I think if you get these two right the clickers will be a useful tool.
