Reimagining education: Utilizing technology for just-in-time learning

Nurse Educators are utilizing technology to provide nursing staff with just in time learning. QR codes have been developed containing tutorial videos on low volume equipment and topics that nurses frequently request reeducation on. This innovative teaching style has been effective and continues to be used for further educational initiatives.

Remediation: A 10-year follow up systematic review

In recent years, leaders of national organizations have called for the profession to build the science of nursing education through quality research. Over the past decade, the use of remediation has infused the pedagogy of nursing education and is often cited as an effective strategy in facilitating student success. As a follow-up to Pennington and Spurlock’s 2010 research evaluating the effectiveness of remediation and NCLEX-RN success, this systematic review examines the literature related to the topical area since the original publication. The current review consists of both systematic and exploratory searches, with 13 articles meeting inclusion criteria. It was concluded that the evolutionary state of the science surrounding remediation and NCLEX-RN success has not advanced. Within nursing education, conceptual dissonance of the term “remediation” may be hindering development of the science in this area. This presentation will provide insights into the systematic review process and offer directions for future research.

Acceptability and usability of quick response codes to access just-in-time training for low-frequency nursing procedures

We explored the acceptability and usability of nurses using quick response (QR) codes for accessing just-in-time training (JITT)on 24-bed medical/surgical unit in a community hospital hospital. Initially, no nurses utilized the technology. Nurses may utilize QR codes for JITT if they perceive the education to fill a gap in knowledge.
