This blog serves two main purposes. It includes tips on learning using technology, especially as it supports the 5th edition of the textbook, Informatics & Nursing: Opportunities and Challenges, that I authored. The blog also includes tips about informatics strategies that add to the scholarship of nursing and teaching/learning excellence.

Gaming and Treatment of PTSD
I am still hooked on Prensky's work about the Digital Native as it relate to thinking differently. To that aspect, I continue to read about and practice various types of digital gaming. I ran across an article in the online New York Times this morning that discussed the possibility that the computer game Tetris could be used to treat post traumatic stress syndrome (PTSD) http://www.nytimes.com/projects/magazine/ideas/2009/#technology-14 Very interesting!
