Integrating electronic conferencing to enhance problem solving in nursing.
The authors describe how a computer-mediated conference was integrated into a baccalaureate nursing program clinical course. They discuss methods used in implementing the conference, including a technical review of the software and hardware, and methods of implementing and monitoring the conference with students. Examples of discussion items, student and faculty responses to posted items, and responses to use of the computer-mediated conference are included. Results and recommendations from this experience will be useful to other schools integrating computer-mediated conference technology into the nursing school curriculum.
