Rationale: YouTube is an appropriate e-learning (Web 2.0) technology for nursing students. An important aspect is the ability to network with fellow students who may be anywhere around the globe. In addition, nursing students can use different senses to understand content. Digital natives are characterized by their understanding of multimedia and sophisticated skill with computer technologies. They prefer multimedia and the "multi-tasking" it requires and are quite comfortable using technology. In light of the needs and preferences of this twenty-first century student, engaging these students and new employees requires the nurse educator to begin exploring the use of strategies like YouTube and Second life. YouTube "is a place for people to engage in new ways with video by sharing, commenting on, and viewing videos" (YouTube, 2007).
