New Virtual Simulation: OB Active Labor

Image
To assist faculty who are replacing clinical with online learning activities during the COVID-19 crisis, a new online H5P learning activity has been created by the Open RN team on OB Active Labor. The H5P link is  https://cvtc.h5p.com/content/1290986021840855858 A Teaching Plan that contains suggested facilitator questions for virtual group discussion following the online learning activity is also available. This scenario is based on the previously created  ARISE OB Nursing Level 2B scenario  that is used with iPads and the free ARIS app.

COVID-19 Assessment and PPE

Links to Open RN H5P patient care scenarios

Image
In our attempt to assist nursing faculty in quickly developing online learning activities during the COVID crisis, the Open RN team is maintaining a Google doc containing links to newly created OER H5P patient care scenarios and associated teaching plans. These scenarios are also being uploaded to Canvas Commons so that faculty can easily import them into Canvas LMS. Additionally, the OER media for these scenarios is located on the Open RN You Tube channel for faculty to  potentially create their own scenarios.  The media is organized by Playlist according to the previously developed ARISE Simulations that are available in Skills Commons .

Newborn Virtual Simulation Scenario

As part of the response to the COVID-19 crisis, the Open RN team is pleased to announce the release of an OER Newborn Assessment Virtual Simulation  created in the H5P platform.  Faculty can incorporate this link into their learning management system for students to independently complete this scenario on their computer:  https://cvtc.h5p.com/content/1290975333436042968 An associated Teaching Plan is also provided for faculty with additional discussion questions that can potentially be used for a group activity.  Please provide feedback on this scenario using the survey link in the Teaching Plan.  We value your feedback as we continue to create additional virtual simulations using H5P.
