Week 14
This is the second to last blog post that I'll be writing for this class. It's both exciting that I'm done with my MSN program and will be walking across that stage next Wednesday and a little sad that I won't have these fun assignments to do anymore.
This week was indeed another fun week. I do wish I was able to add this assignment into the actual lesson plan, it would have been fun (for me). Maybe not so much for the "students" in the class. Again, this assignment makes me think of how I'll be able to use it in nursing education. Although puzzles and crosswords are fun, I don't think they'll work too well with nursing. Kahoot, however, may work! We did use this game and tested it out in our NURS 5602 class. We built 5 question quizzes and everyone downloaded the app and played for about an hour. We didn't notice the time pass by. The only downside was the limited characters the quiz creator had for the questions.
For the professional organization survey, I chose American Nursing Informatics Association (ANIA). I had a hard time deciding whether it was a professional IT organization. I knew it was a professional organization available to nurses and other healthcare professionals, but wasn't sure if IT and informatics were related. After much research, and conflicting information, I think IT is more of an umbrella term of technology and informatics is a specific branch of technology under this umbrella.
I'm a little doubtful on my choice for the professional organization, but hope my assignment is done correctly.
One more week to go.
