S08_Daisy_Yorlina

Yorlina My name is Yorlina. I am nursing graduate student. I received my BSN from CSULA in 2006 and now I am back for my masters. I am coming to school part time. I work full time as a registered nurse at a hospital. My goal is to become a professor for future nursing students. I am not knowlegable in the area of web 2.0 nor other similar technology, however in these first two weeks I have already learned more than I expected on this topic. Looking forward to learning other new knowledge. Other than school and work I like to go to the gym, hang out with friends and family and play volleyball. =Bibliography - Yorlina Semmere= **1.

" This article presents a Web   2.0  telemedical portal, which provides a social community-learning paradigm from the desk of the physician, the student, the hospital administrator, or the insurer. The presented portal utilises RESTful  web  services and techniques like content syndication, mushups and Asynchronous JavaScript API and XML (AJAX). The designed portal is based on the Apache Cocoon RESTful framework for sharing Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine (DICOM) medical case studies. Central to this article is the integration between Cocoon and AJAX. The proposed AJAX-Cocoon portal utilises a JSP portlet architecture, which manages the interaction dynamics and overcomes the shortcomings of the JSR 168 and WSRP 1.0 standards." **__ Abstract __** __ Title: Nursing Educational Technology __ Technology has risen to the point where it has affected every profession known to mankind. Schools have demonstrated that they are the slowest in adapting to the new technology. “… as schools inch slowly into the world of Web 2.0, they could be missing an opportunity to use these new tools to their disadvantage”. (Cook, 2008). “Greater awareness of Web 2.0 can provide health educators with new channels for health communication and will help stimulate additional research to further define best-practice models” (Hanson, 2008). In this presentation I want to validate the use of technology for teachers and students both in nursing education. No more is it necessary to use email, power point, or only teachers for that matter. Why are we depriving ourselves of the opportunities to more efficiently learn material? The technology that is reviewed involves all technologies that involve Web 2.0. The current generation is more advance than past generations, however there is still lots to learn. Technology is moving way too fast for anyone to be caught up with it. It is important for nursing educators and nursing students to be exposed to the technology that is going to bombard them in the future years to come. With the same token heath educators and students will be able to learn way more efficiently with the technology. With the integrated technology into the nursing profession teaching and learning can not only be more effective but extremely convenient in our high paced world. This presentation will review the types of technology how they are different from old methods and how it impacts the nurses, nurse educators, patients and students. Students and teachers are no longer confined to classrooms, textbooks, and lectures. We can use all the methods of learning and apply them to the current technology we have. The technology of blogs wikis, social networks and podcast have affected the way that nursing is taught. “To keep with our changing society and technological advances in nursing practice nurse educators will have to be creative in developing new and innovative models of teaching”. These tools assist educators and students to access the “classroom” at home. Students can learn visually, with the ability to upload, share and comment on pictures of the anatomy of the heart for example. Or the students can listed to the podcast regarding MRSA from the CDC. Teachers and Students can upload the podcast into their social network and share!! Amazingly fast and amazingly simple. I really would like to emphasize that students can learn the curriculum via each other through the use of Web 2.0 technologies. These tools also can be used for patient education. Patient education is part of the nursing scope of practice. Nurses are with the patient more that any health care provider. For this reason the patient can learn a vast amount of information via the nurse. In this technological society most individuals are already learning about Web 2.0 technologies. It is important to integrate their health into their current learning experience. In this presentation, the methods will be examines and validates the use of Web 2.0 in Nursing Education.

Seminar Project title:

**Abstract**
Web 2.0 is a great resource of information and provides many sites on social networking. These tools are used to link people with similar interest and establish connections. The purpose of my seminar is to encourage teachers to take advantage of tools such as blogs to increase student motivation and expand their knowledge through technology.

Social networking is an excellent way to encourage teachers to improve learning techniques. Students are far more advance in technology then ever before. Teachers now need to keep up with the vast changes in technology.

My goal is to share with teachers in my school the many tools and resources in Web 2.0. A useful tool in Web 2.0 that teachers should be familiar with is creating a blog for their classroom. I would like to teach my peers how to create a site for students to socially interact and communicate various topics in the classroom.

A blog is a website that teachers can maintain to provide information to students about the class. Students can provide commentary, ask questions and play an active role in social networking. Teachers can acquire useful information from students that can assist in determining the levels of knowledge. A Blog is a great tool for students to interact, work collaboratively and share information. A Blog will facilitate student engagement in learning. Students will have the opportunity to actively participate where they would otherwise feel apprehensive in commenting and participating on important topics.

A blog will keep students up to date with information on current topics, details on assignments and deadlines that can possibly become lost. Students will be motivated to share their thoughts and ideas with other classmates. Students will have the opportunity to share ideas using critical thinking and simultaneously enhance their writing skills. Most importantly, students and teachers can access this useful tool anytime of the day.

My presentation will be on ways teachers can implement this valuable tool in the classroom. There are several websites that offer free access to blogs. The potential of using web tools in the classroom are endless. A blog is an efficient way for teachers to monitor topics, facilitate learning and stay connected with students.
