Traditionally teaching nursing students psychomotor skills took place in a laboratory setting; however, recent developments in computer technology have revolutionised how educators can transfer knowledge. To meet the need for an efficient and interactive learning experience a software product was required to educate nursing students about health assessment techniques. This paper presents how existing 'old technology' of a video was given new life by embracing new technology, resulting in development of an interactive CD-ROM with supporting WebCT. This innovation reflects a more flexible approach to learning as it is dynamic, portable, self-paced and more convenient for adult learners especially those in remote areas.
传统上,向护理专业学生传授心理运动技能是在实验室环境中进行的;然而,计算机技术的最新发展彻底改变了教育工作者传授知识的方式。为了满足高效互动学习体验的需求,需要一款软件产品来向护理专业学生传授健康评估技术。本文介绍了如何通过采用新技术赋予现有视频“旧技术”新的活力,从而开发出一款带有支持WebCT的交互式光盘。这项创新体现了一种更灵活的学习方式,因为它具有动态性、便携性、自主节奏性,并且对成年学习者,尤其是偏远地区的成年学习者来说更加方便。
