Study Notes
Introduction to Educational Technology in Nursing
- Educational technology refers to the use of a wide array of teaching and learning software and hardware in college and university classrooms.
- The ultimate goal of educational technology is to enable an improved learning environment, which boosts student outcomes, increases student engagement, and participation in class.
Definition of Educational Technology
- Educational technology is the systematic application of technology in the field of education.
Ways of Educational Technology
- Creating dynamic textbooks with custom case studies related to current headlines.
- Gamification, where games and activities are imported into class lessons to reinforce concepts in a fun way.
- Using audio-visual aids or hardware in education.
- Three Dimension (3D) and sensory platforms including augmented reality, virtual reality, and artificial intelligence.
Principles of Educational Technology
- Good teaching matters, and bad teaching cannot be overcome by technology.
- Educational technologies are flexible and interchangeable in education and training.
- There is no 'super-technology', and all technologies have their strengths and weaknesses.
- All four media (print, audio, television, and computers) should be made available to teachers and learners.
- Balance variety with economy, and limit the number of technologies used to avoid complexity and redundancy.
- Interaction is essential for effective learning, and can be provided through appropriate technologies.
- Student numbers are critical in technology selection, and teachers need training to use technologies effectively.
Impact of Technology on Learning Experience
- Increased Accessibility: Technology makes nursing education more accessible through online learning platforms, digital textbooks, and course materials.
- Interactive Learning: Interactive learning experiences, such as virtual simulations or virtual reality, provide realistic practice experiences.
- Real-Time Feedback: Apps and software, like learning management systems (LMS), offer real-time feedback and grading.
- Convenience in Communication: Digital technology enhances communication, enabling interaction with faculty and peers outside of traditional classroom hours.
