Nursing professors鈥� project well-received

Earlier this summer, 四色AV鈥檚 Judy Williams, assistant professor of nursing, and Donna Glaze, assistant professor and director of nursing technologies and informatics, presented 鈥淏eyond Screen Capture: Using Camtasia to Create Instructional Videos鈥� at the Drexel University Nursing Education Institute in Providence, R.I. Their presentation focused on the advantages of making instructional videos available to the students.

Last spring, Williams and Glaze recorded and produced videos of physical assessment and other required skills for the nursing students using Camtasia, said Williams. Camtasia is a software package that can be used to edit videos and render them in a web-friendly format.

鈥淲e surveyed the students and have statistics as to students鈥� satisfaction with our venture. Our poster is beautiful and feedback from the conference attendees was extremely positive,鈥� Williams said.

Williams and Glaze are sending a proposal for publication to the Journal of Nursing Education.
