OBJECTIVE
Explain how the Internet is used to collaborate and communicate in the health care workplace and health care administration
QUESTIONS
-Identify two different recent software, hardware, or cloud technologies that are used for collaboration or could be used over a network in your profession, education, or workplace (This would be for Nursing)
Note: do not use telephones, faxes, or email, which are old technologies. Do not use “the Internet” because it is a pipeline, not a collaboration technology.
Emphasis: the focus is on how the technology is used for, or facilitates, collaboration between individuals.
For each technology
-Briefly describe the environment (e.g. workplace, education, career) of your collaboration example (This is for Nursing)
-Briefly describe the technology and in what way it enables collaboration. Assume the reader is unfamiliar with the technology
-Explain how, or the reasons for which, your workplace or school employs or should employ it to collaborate
-What restrictions, if any, are or should be placed on its use by the employer?
-Explain in detail how, for better or worse, each technology has caused change in your profession, education, or work environment.
