Last week you learned how to develop a teaching plan and infuse advanced technology into your nurse educator role.

This week we will be focusing on teaching and learning through distance and online learning modalities. You will also submit a Teaching Plan Video Presentation. This presentation is based on the teaching plan developed in week 6.
