Nursing Educators at CUNY
A place for CUNY nursing educators to share news and content, ask questions, and collaborate on anything of interest to the community. We hope this group will serve as an open forum for information exchange and networking across the 13 schools and programs of nursing at CUNY.
Members are encouraged to share news and developments from their campus, explore teaching strategies and instructional technology, circulate upcoming conferences and events, post articles and job opportunities, and more.
Originally a learning space for members of the New York City Nursing Education Consortium in Technology (NYCNECT), we welcome colleagues who share a passion for preparing nursing students to become expert clinicians and, in turn, to improve the safety and quality of patient care.
Moderators Wanted!
We are looking for volunteers interested in moderating this group. If you would like to take a more active role in facilitating discussion and sharing news and resources with the community, please contact Shawn McGinniss at smcginni@hunter.cuny.edu.

Wednesday, April 27
3pm ET
Bonnie Taylor, M.Ed., CAPM, Educational Development Specialist, UTHSCSA School of NursingThe University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio is using case-based learning activities to attempt to improve student satisfaction and learning outcomes for nearly-graduated medical students.
Traditionally faculty distribute case scenarios in a handout-lecture-question/answer cycle. They have wanted and needed to transform the cases into more engaging learning activities for individuals and groups, incorporating decision-making, feedback, self-assessment, and reflection. But the faculty’s challenging teaching/clinical course load limited time to accomplish this.
The task for an instructional designer: develop a simple-to-use template for turning existing cases into engaging activities. And the solution: use SoftChalk to build the template faculty can adapt to their needs.
During this session you will see the template they created plus samples of the case-based activities in three specialties. In addition they will discuss both student and faculty satisfaction with the process.

A message from a nursing informatics colleague about an upcoming training opportunity:
“Please consider attending an upcoming Nursing Informatics Boot Camp in Kansas City, MO., Hartford, CT., or Seattle, WA. Both ANCC contact hours and CPHIMS/CAHIMS credits are issued.You may be considering Nursing Informatics Certification. If you are already certified or up for re-licensure, you may need contact hours. We do have non-nurse attendees as well. If you have attended an NI Boot Camp recently, please pass this to a colleague.
See the attached brochure for upcoming and planned events or http://axxessweb.com/consulting/nibootcamp:
-August 2-3, 2013 sponsored by Cerner for Cerner Associates and Cerner customers, Kansas City, MO.
-October 10-11, 2013 sponsored by the Puget Sound Nursing Informatics Group and Axxess Consult Health, Seattle, WA.
-October 17-18, 2013 sponsored by Hartford Hospital, Hartford, CT.
Let me know if you have any questions. I have event specific brochures for some of the above events.
We are working on other locations (like Atlanta, GA., El Paso, TX., Houston, TX., Baltimore, MD., and San Francisco, CA.). Alternatively you may wish to host an event at your location.
I hope to see you at an upcoming Nursing Informatics Boot Camp.

SUBJECT: Invitation to the 2013 CUNY Instructional/Information Technology Conference
I am delighted to extend to you and your colleagues this invitation to attend the 12th Annual CUNY IT Conference, which will take place on December 5 and 6, 2013 at John Jay College.
This year’s conference, again chaired by George Otte, offers a wealth of insights and information in presentations that include a striking number of cross-campus collaborations. Like the past three annual conferences, it ranges beyond a single day, so there will be two keynotes again this year, this time by Candace Thille (founding director of the Open Learning Initiative and Research Fellow in the Office of the Vice Provost for Online Learning at Stanford University) on Thursday the 5th and Kenneth C. Green (founding director of the Campus Computing Project, the largest continuing study of the role of instructional and information technology in American higher education) on Friday the 6th.
The theme for our 12th Annual — Instructional/Information Technology in CUNY: “Disruptions and Developments” — challenged those submitting proposals to consider, not just what’s new, but what is likely to persist and even flourish in transformative ways in a remarkably changeful IT landscape. The results should be of interest to all members of the CUNY community. As we confront change, what new risks and responsibilities do we incur? What new opportunities can we seize?
I want to thank George and the Conference Committee for vetting the many proposals, reflecting higher than ever levels of interest and activity. Only a fraction could be selected, so you are assured of seeing those that seem best to represent the interests as well as the diversity of the CUNY community.
The Conference Program is available at the URL below, which also links to the conference e-registration application. Given previous years’ “full house” attendance, I urge you to register in advance. Registration is free to all members of the CUNY community, but space is limited.
Here is where you go to view the Conference Program and to register:
http://www.centerdigitaled.com/events/CUNY-IT-Conference-2013.html
The Conference begins at noon on the 5th and culminates, after two sets of concurrent presentations, with Candace Thille’s keynote at 3:30 and the CUNY IT Awards presentation at 4:30. On the 6th, registrants are welcomed with a continental breakfast at 8:30am, with concurrent sessions at 9:30 and the keynote by Kenneth C. Green at 10:45. The keynote is followed by lunch, and then there are two more sets of concurrent sessions before the end-of-day drawing for prizes offered up by the vendors.
I hope you will join me in attending. Again, please register. The URL given above is for the full program schedule, and includes the link to register.
Thank you.
