Technology is pivotal in nursing education, but persistent barriers hinder technology’s full integration in nursing programs. Drs. Will Brewer and Ann-Marie Irons discuss barriers and facilitators to the use of technology in nursing education. They surveyed 1,761 nursing faculty members in prelicensure programs about their views on technology, barriers, training needs, and importance of technology in the classroom and simulation. Faculty highlighted financial support, commitment, and administrative support as critical for technology adoption. Additionally, time in the classroom was noted as a significant barrier. Overcoming financial constraints and enhancing faculty buy-in are essential for successful technology integration. Learn more about their survey and methodology in their article.
