title: Web-based teaching in undergraduate nursing programs.
abstract: This study examined faculty perspectives of teaching undergraduate nursing courses entirely online via the World Wide Web. More than 80% of the 171 faculty completing the online survey indicated spending more time planning and implementing a Web course than a traditional course. Forty-seven percent preferred online teaching to traditional instruction, and described the experience as a success beyond expectation. This positive reaction supports the ongoing viability of Web-based instruction in nursing education.
