Abstract

This article describes a project that integrates faculty-developed computer courseware into a baccalaureate curriculum. The courseware was implemented as a teaching-learning strategy to enhance mastery of content and assist in development of decision-making skills. Curriculum, course, and unit objectives served as the foundation for the computer courseware lessons. The courseware is produced by a design team of six faculty. Computer lessons are interactive and actively involve students in the learning process. Students in six of eight clinical nursing courses are using faculty-developed courseware.
