Mosby, the medical reference arm of STM publisher Elsevier, has announced that its Faculty Development Institute conference, held January 3-5, 2010, brought together nursing educators from across the US with industry leaders. The three-day educational conference sought to address challenges in the nursing industry from a variety of perspectives.
The Mosby meet is designed for both new nurse educators and veteran nurse faculty. More than 450 attendees from 47 states had the opportunity to collaborate with other industry professionals on a range of topics including legal issues, teaching strategies, simulation and virtual experiences.
The event sought to focus on not only introducing new technology to nurse educators but aiding them in integrating it into their existing curricula. The Institute’s main conference breakout session included virtual clinical experiences, integrating simulation throughout the curriculum and using new aspects of technology in the classroom. By simulating real-world situations, attendees aided each other by sharing everyday tips, tools and techniques for better teaching outcomes.
Mosby has been holding the annual conference over the past 20 years.
