title: Strategies for online teaching and learning: lessons learned.
abstract: Distance learning and Web-based learning are accepted components of the American higher educational system. Strategies for teaching and learning in this medium require a different perspective on the teacher-student relationship and the educational process. The authors describe an innovative online learning endeavor focusing on a specialty practice area in contemporary healthcare: wound, ostomy, and continence nursing. Special emphasis is placed on the teaching-learning approaches that were successfully incorporated into the program.
