About me

Activity

Hello Mongwa.  I enjoyed your discussions. Gave an interesting point of opinion and experience.  I am most involved with simulations and clinical settings.  The clinical setting is beneficial for students to learn from each other's experiences.

Good feedback

Comment on Maryjo Marvin-Dixon's post:

Has anyone performed a group Clinical Tic Tock?  I believe this would be a great way for students to collaborate when doing a new clinical skill.

Definently a great explanation that qualified expertise is irreplaceable.  I've heard people worrying that AI will replace their job security.

Good point to refresh thoughts about AI replacing human interactions.

How and when do students most often utilize AI?

AI can help the instructor better support students in a clinical setting and offer realistic clinical scenarios without being hands-on.

I would be proactive and observe opportunities to initiate and open a dialogue with students.

I have learned that if you want a successful business, the first priority is to deliver excellent customer service and put the customer first.

Students are the number one priority.  Faculty are to bring their best to the forefront of education.  Make every effort to meet their needs and be resourceful.  Whenever you're not sure on any topic or deficit, be humble and reach out for help from the instructor.
