Implementing instructional technology. Strategies for success.

This article describes strategies for the integration of computer technology in a university-based school of nursing. Faculty concerns related to use of computer technology were assessed in a previous study. A series of computer technology and literacy workshops were developed based on this assessment. Computer use increased and faculty concerns about technology decreased after workshop participation. Other strategies to integrate computer technology include developing an informatics committee and planning and initiating a technology infrastructure consisting of hardware and software resources, and a local area network. Strategic planning was initiated placing increasing emphasis on curriculum integration of computer technology and nursing informatics.

User support for a library-managed online database search service: the BMA Library free MEDLINE service.

This paper discusses user support in the context of a library-managed online database search service. Experience is drawn from the British Medical Association (BMA) Library's Free MEDLINE Service. More than 9,600 BMA members, who are largely unfamiliar with computer communications and database searching, have registered as users of the service. User support has played a significant role in the development of the service and has comprised four main aspects: an information pack, a help desk, online help, and MEDLINE courses. The paper includes an analysis of help desk usage statistics collected from January 1996 through June 1996, and highlights other relevant research. Plans for further service enhancements and their implications in terms of future user support are discussed.

To boldly nurse where no-one has nursed before: nursing on the Internet.

A lot of articles about the Internet give you the idea that it's just a huge repository of stored information you just click your way around with a mouse: like a TV with many thousands of different channels that each play a different show. But the Internet is more than just a quick fix for the information hungry; it's a way to communicate with others on an awesome scale.

What is this thing called 'Internet'?

According to a survey conducted by the Australian Journal of Nursing in 1994, 43% of nurses owned personal computers and another 28% were considering the purchase of one in the next year. Given such a high ownership rate, and the interest in the 'Net' itself, some understanding of the fundamentals of online computing and the Internet would seem timely.
