Teaching in the Techno World

Nurses of today are lifelong learners. Teaching these students requires faculty to be creative, innovative, and most of all, tuned into the needs of students used to technology at their fingertips. Set the tone for active learning in the classroom by using teaching strategies that are creative and innovative, use all the senses, and spark student enthusiasm for coming to class. Integrate multimedia and Internet resources for the student who expects instant information access. Many examples of using online resources are demonstrated in this presentation.
