Abstract

This study examined faculty perspectives of teaching undergraduate nursing courses entirely online via the World Wide Web. More than 80% of the 171 faculty completing the online survey indicated spending more time planning and implementing a Web course than a traditional course. Forty-seven percent preferred online teaching to traditional instruction, and described the experience as a success beyond expectation. This positive reaction supports the ongoing viability of Web-based instruction in nursing education.

Drops in estrogen levels affect brain, body and behavior: reported relationship between attitudes and menopausal symptoms.

Bloch found that women who had more menopausal symptoms had a more negative view of menopause than women who had fewer symptoms. Bloch's conclusion that a negative view of menopause will lead to more symptoms implies a cause and effect assumption that is not warranted and is also counter-intuitive. Current research on the neural effects of estrogen suggest that the observed relationship is more likely to be due to the fact that some women experience negative symptoms during menopause as a result of diminished levels of estrogen. This, in turn leads these same women to adopt a more negative view of menopause, at least compared with women who have relatively less severe symptoms.
