Abstract

Many schools of nursing are transitioning traditional and broadcast registered nurse to bachelor of science in nursing programs to the Web. A variety of options exists when placing material on the Web for nursing programs. Some challenges include having adequate numbers of faculty to implement Web-based education; student access to adequate and available computer and broadband technology; faculty readiness and development; and resources needed for a smooth transition. The authors discuss these challenges and some options for making the transition to a Web-based delivery method.
