Summary of Goals
Otterbein College provides pediatric education for undergraduate and
graduate nursing
students using such methodologies as classroom teaching, on-line and hybrid
model courses.
Although web-enhanced formats are utilized for some didactic courses,
there is limited use of
technology in required clinical courses.
The purpose of the project is to:
- initiate pod or vod-casting in clinical courses on select pediatric
topics such as
growth, development and health promotion - increase the use of high fidelity Human Patient Simulators (HPS)
to replicate
clinical case scenarios - evaluate the effectiveness of technology and simulation on nursing
undergraduate
and graduate student knowledge and satisfaction.
Resources Created
