摘要:

This study investigated the perceptions of nursing educators concerning the amount and kinds of computer training that should occur in the nursing degree program. Data were collected in two phases: a semi-structured interview of experts in the application of the computer to nursing and a random sample of nursing educators in 2-year and 4-year nursing degree programs.The panel of experts identified objectives within each of seven domains: programming and algorithms, skills in computer usage, major uses and applications, limitations of computers, personal and social aspects, and relevant values and attitudes. The responses of this panel were used to generate an universe of computer literacy objectives. The sample of nursing educators then identified a subset of objectives within the universe that they felt nursing students should master in order to be computer literate. The survey found that nursing educators desire graduates of nursing degree programs to understand how a computer works and to develop skills in using application programs.They do not expect nursing graduates to acquire programming skills, however, they do expect the graduates to acquire skills in using the computer as a tool in nursing. These skills include using a word processor for writing nursing care plans, using computer-aided instruction as a learning tool, using a hospital computer information system, using a computerized library database, and using software for statistical computations.

摘要:

The versatility, speed, and portability of the personal computer make it a great partner in the classroom for teaching statistics. The computer display from the monitor can be shown as a clear image on a large screen by a projection panel. Commercially available software, easy-to-use and relatively inexpensive, enables an instructor to carry out many classroom demonstrations of basic statistical ideas. The graphics capabilities of the personal computer for plotting and animated effects capture students' interest and promote learning.

摘要:

The last few years have seen a tremendous growth in videocassette usage, not only for entertainment, but also as a viable teaching method. Most homes in American now have at least one VCR. At Ozarka Vo Tech in Melbourne, AR, educators recognize the educational value of videotapes and have combined efforts to produce several quality computer-generated videotapes. With funding from projects, PIB9-01 A Competency-Based, Computer-Assisted, And Computer-Managed Model LPN Program, and the PI 2B0B1 Comprehensive Learning Lab, educators have been able to produce teacher-made videotapes to augment the different educational programs at our school. This article describes the method used, equipment needed, and general hints for improving the quality of teacher-made videotapes.

摘要:

The Researcher's Workbench, developed at the University of Utah College of Nursing, is a computer toolkit for nurse researchers. Workbench includes a set of software tools, most of which are commercially available, to support each stage of the research process. The tools reside on a Macintosh II desk-top computer [Apple Computer, Cupertino, CA) that houses processors to run both Macintosh and MS-DOS [Microsoft Corporation] software. The Workbench is available to all College of Nursing faculty, research associates, and graduate students. This article describes the purpose, methods, design, and implementation of the Workbench. The article assumes familiarity with personal computer terminology.

摘要:

Faculty in academic and service settings are searching for mechanisms for improving effectiveness and efficiency of teaching students with diverse learning styles. This article describes the Dunn, Dunn, and Price Productivity Environmental Preference Survey [PEPS], a computerized learning style inventory, that provides both individual and group summaries for learning style preference on 20 subscales. The validity and reliability of the instrument for nurses is reported. Practical suggestions are offered for using the individual and group results of the inventory. The use of the inventory has added benefits of improving computer literacy for novice users.
