While millennial nursing students and faculty may be familiar with newer technologies, baby boomer nursing faculty may have some apprehensions about incorporating technology into curricula. Questions: What are faculty experiences with technology? Are there significant differences in technology use and knowledge between millennial undergraduates, millennial faculty and baby boomer faculty? Issues: "Computer technologies have opened the door to many new teaching approaches for nurse educators. However, the challenges facing faculty who did not 'grow up' in the computer age continue to be a focus of concern. The rapid expansion of electronic learning environments has increased the need to bridge the gap between the generational cohort of many educators and that of today's learners." (Axley, 2008). Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to explore and synthesize two interrelated topical areas, undergraduate nursing faculty; and nursing faculty experiences with technology. The paper will address how the exploration and synthesis of these two interrelated topical areas can be applied to evidence-based nursing practice in a nurse educator role, and evidence-based nursing research. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: tables/charts Journal Article ougenre: Article language: English refInfo: holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
