Background: The purpose of this report is to provide solutions to improving online course teaching for the challenging topic of Evidenced-Based Practice.Evidence-based practice courses five weeks in length with assignments that would enlist the creativity of the student if allowed to conduct a clinical project.Methods: The student was given a choice on a hypothetical patient and clinical topic to base their research on for the course. Virtual meetings and video recordings were used to conduct the course.Results: An improvement from a 3.1 to a 3.8 on course evaluations and 3.9 on faculty evaluations by students which gave a conformation that the student obtained knowledge from this course online environment.Conclusion: An understanding of the learner needs is incredibly important and an emphasis on audiovisual format which enhances knowledge acquisition of complex course content. As instructors, innovative thinking, and application of course content delivery is needed for today’s student.

Evidenced Based Practice

The review article presents the obstacles and the solutions towards the implementation of Evidence Based Practice among the nurses in India by merging the content and concept from a few set of related articles by the experts and those include 1. K Gitumoni and K Jyasree. The barriers and challenges of conducting nursing research and communicatoing findings into practice. 2. Daphne c duncombe. A study of perceived barriers and faciliattors to implement evidenced based practice. 3. Joan and Warren. A crosssectional study to assess the strength and challenges to implement ebp in nursing. 4. B Mauricio, Implementing evidence based practice: a challenge for the nursing practice. 5. M Neda and B naser. Nurses faculties knowledge and attitude on evidence based practice. The successful utilization of best evidence into practice depends on the knowledge of nurses, understanding the concepts, and its application. There exists various barriers and facilitators as well to the application of EBP among nurses. The practice can be a successful and routine process in an organization only if there could be support, encouragement and recognition by the administration. The health care team in India must provide an indispensible support to eliminate those barriers and facilitate the optimal care through best evidences in the health care facilities. Thus the article comprises a cross cut view on the obstacles in the application of best evidences in the clinical setting.

Phenomenological Methodology

This chapter explores through phenomenological methodology the experiences of nursing faculty who transitioned from live to online teaching. These experiences are further examined through the theory of transformative learning to determine whether participants were able to transform their teaching identity from traditional classroom teacher (sage on the stage) to facilitators of learning. One-on-one interviews were conducted with 16 full-time nursing faculty at 4 state universities. Findings revealed that most faculty were originally hesitant to teach online and had multiple misconceptions regarding teaching methods and online student communication. With one exception, professional development for online teaching was limited. Most participants described transforming their teaching methods and philosophies as they gained more experience. Results implicate that faculty development should focus not only on educational principles and technology but also ways to connect with students and develop course content that helps maintain faculty identities.

On Line Learning

Most universities make use of e-learning facilities to manage and deliver on-line learning. Many universities have adopted an approach to teaching and the delivery of course content that combines traditional face-to-face delivery with online teaching resources: a blended learning approach. Many factors act to determine how online learning is adopted, accepted, and the balance between online and face-to-face delivery is formed. In this paper, the authors suggest that educational technology adoption decisions are made at three levels: strategic decisions are made by the university to implement a particular package, and then individual academics made adoption decisions regarding those aspects of the package they will use in their teaching and how they will use them. They also make a decision on the balance they will have between on-line and face-to-face teaching. This article questions how decisions are made to adopt one e-learning package rather than another. The authors then examine how individual academics relate to this technology once it is adopted and make use of it to deliver some or all of their teaching and determine the appropriate blend.
