SIGNIFICANCE OF TECHNOLOGY-BASED ENVIRONMENT IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF NURSING STUDENTS’ CRITICAL THINKING SKILLS

In parallel with the increase of the students, there is a rapid increase use of technology. Wider accessibility to internet, use of e-mails, web sources, use of advanced mobile gadgets and simulators further fuels the use of technology. However, it is of crucial importance that technology-based learning environment has high-security hardware, that it embodies features that will properly suit their level of and help their development of cognitive, psychomotor and social development process of the students. Therefore, online class/labs and online applied conference/courses–when used effectively-will positively contribute to development of critical thinking skills, an indispensible part and major aim of contemporary education.Therefore, it is vital that technology-based learning environment is utilized and its significant is appreciated in order to enable development and actual practice of critical thinking skills by the nursing faculty members and the students.
