I'm Learning Too!

I have just started a very interesting class called video-pod casting. I will use this site to play with my new knowlege and perfect the video-blogging process. I just bought a new mini-recorder from Radio Shack, and will learn how to upload a mini-movie of my students this week. I can't wait to create an interesting place for students and faculty to visit and become inspired.

What's this site all about?

Welcome to a blog created for and about nursing students and faculty. I teach nursing students nursing, and help faculty become dynamic teachers of the art and science of nursing. In this blog I will highlight student and faculty challenges and accomplishments in the experience called nursing and nursing education. I invite you to join me and document the rich and dynamic field of nursing.
