The nurse is planning to teach college nursing students how to use the Internet for health care information. During the lecture, the nurse plans to include:
1. How to search for and evaluate health information.
2. A directory of campus sites of interest.
3. Information technology instruction.
4. A directory of libraries.
1. How to search for and evaluate health information.
Rationale:
Campus health centers that use the Internet as a tool for health education must train nursing students how to search for and evaluate the health information they find. Sites of interest for the campus would not directly impact the nursing program. Information technology is a subject that teaches nurses how to use technology for the delivery of care and communication. Libraries are important, but knowing about them would not be a part of this presentation.
