Small group for nurse educators

[tonyh161a]

Hi I am a nurse educator living in New Zealand, I work for a district health board and I am not part of an academic establishment. Is there anyone else out there in a similar situation? Being hospital based and educating from within so to speak. I first cut my teeth on e-learning whilst teaching at UCLan in Preston in UK albeit quite limited experience. I am hoping this course will support me in developing my knowledge re TEL. It would be great to connect with others in a similar situation

Hi I have worked quite a lot with nurse educators in Britain. They have used Moodle a lot and I would be happy to share what I know about this.

Hi
I have experience with education of healthcare workers both in New Zealand and UK.  More recently I have has a lot of experience with PBL (small groups) and would be happy to share thoughts on this.

Hi Carol and Kiwimurph,

Thanks for your replies and the offers of info sharing, I was really chuffed to see that my post had been successful in attracting responses! NZ is 11 hours ahead of UK so never expect quick responses from me, I am probably in bed when you’re writing.  Is there anything I might be able to support you with?  I did my PGCert in HE at UCLan in Preston before moving to NZ 5 years ago, I am familiar with PBL and facilitated groups in the UK, I have never thought of using similar through our Electronic Learning Management System at work, it could possibly work.  I was starting to use webct in the UK but I have had a break from on-line learning until i started my current job 12 months ago.

Keep in touch

Tony
