Abstract

Tele-mentoring is an interactive experimental method that allows young surgeons' education by distant learning tutoring of an expert surgeon. The problem about assessment of efficacy and quality of computer-assisted instruction is under evaluation today. Tele-mentoring is supported by videoconferencing system and it is not an exclusive methodology but an additional methodology to traditional didactic for clinicians and surgeons. It allows personal virtual trainings by computers and telecommunication systems. Videoconference allows tutoring for telemedicine, teletriage and telesurgery also.

Reusable learning units: an innovative teaching strategy for online nursing education.

Constructivist and adult learning theory provided the theoretical framework for reusable learning units (RLUs) developed for a Southeastern University's family nurse-practitioner and nurse-midwifery distance educational programs. Reusable learning units are an organized series of learning events that satisfy one or more interrelated learning objectives that cannot be broken down to component parts without losing semantic and pragmatic meaning. This paper describes the conceptual framework, background and history of RLUs, and collaborative efforts for development and implementation.
