Discussion: Rationale for choosing a technology toolDiscussion: Rationale for choosing a
technology toolBegin reviewing and replying to peer postings/responses early in the week
to enhance peer discussion. See the rubric for participation points. Participate in the
discussion by asking a question, providing a statement of clarification, providing viewpoints
with a rationale, challenging aspects of the discussion, or indicating relationships between
two or more lines of reasoning in the discussion. Always use constructive language, even in
criticism, to work toward the goal of positive progress.Reply to my peersPeer 1a. Provide
information related to setting, patient, and topicThe setting is in the patient’s home, the
patient isgeriatric,and the topic is related to patient’s disease process.b. Discuss your
rationale for choosing a technology toolFormal one on oneinstructionis a
plannedactivity.One-to-one instruction,which may be given either formally or informally,
involves face-to-face delivery of information specifically designed to meet the needs of an
individual learner. Teaching methods such as one-to-one instruction have a positive effect
on patient education and compliance (pg469)Such instruction offers an opportunity for
both the educator and the learner to communicate knowledge, ideas, and feelings primarily
through oral exchange, although nonverbal messages can be conveyed as well. Thus, this
method of teaching is a process of mutual interchange between the patient and the health
professional. It requires interpersonal skill and sensitivity on the part of the educator and
the ability to establish rapport with the learner. (pg469) The pace and content of teaching
can be tailored to meet individual needs. Ideal as an intervention for initial assessment and
ongoing evaluation of the learner. Good for teaching behaviors in all three domains of
learning. Especially suitable for teaching those who are learning disabled, low literate, or
educationallydisadvantaged.(pg472)ORDER NOW FOR ORIGINAL, PLAGIARISM-FREE
PAPERSC.Explain your lesson and how you would evaluate learning.One-to-one teaching
can be tailored to meet objectives in all three domains of learning. It begins with an
assessment of the learner and the mutual setting of objectives to be accomplished
(Burkhart, 2008). As part of the assessment process, it is very important to determine
whether any problem behaviors exist, such as smoking, and at which stage of change the
person is with respect to dealing with such behaviors. Once this information is determined,
the educator can tailor educational interventions to that stage. (pg470)Return
demonstration by the learner is carried out as an attempt to establish competence by
performing a task with cues from the educator as needed. (pg473)ReferenceBastable, S. B.

choosing a technology toolPeer 2For this week’s discussion I choose to talk about
technology. The tool that I have chosen is the iPad. We use the iPad for patient that need
visual learning. The iPad is used bedside for admissions, educational purposes throughout
the patients stay, discharging, educational videos, correctly identifying the patient’s
histories and allergies and verifying the patient correct medication and dosage they are
taking at home. When a patient is first admitted to the hospital, we have a questionnaire
over education. This is how we assess what type of learner the patient is. We can successful
help the patient learns through the iPad. The iPad helps patient who are hearing impaired,
have language barriers and patients who are elderly and less educated. When using the
iPad, we can assess the patient to see if the patient is interested in learning the information.
We use educational videos that have been created and designed by the hospitals education
coordinators with our healthcare system. “Rather than relying solely on verbal instructions,
the iPad allows physicians the opportunity to visually communicate valuable educational
information to the patient, including the course of treatment and follow-up care. Out of
hospitals around the country who have implemented iPads as a means of improving
discharge communication, 63% saw an improvement in survey responses regarding patient
satisfaction (Kang, 2013). The ability to improve patient education ultimately leads to lower
readmission rates and a higher ROI for hospitals and other medical facilities. This could
save hospitals millions of dollars per year on patient reimbursement fees and Medicare
penalties” (Engelhardt, D (n.d.).ResourcesEngelhardt, D. (n.d.). 7 Ways iPads are Being Used
