Extended Abstract: 

This case study will discuss the use of an online asynchronous video tool implemented in a national online nursing program.  Nursing students are required to complete a number of clinical rotations in hospitals and other healthcare institutions as part of their nursing training. As an online institution we needed an engaging method for facilitating student reflection after their clinical experiences.  We utilized Tanner's Model of Reflection as our theoretical framework for activity design. We selected GoReact, an asynchronous online video tool with a peer review feature to provide a mechanism for student reflection. This project was highly successful in student engagement and increased quality of reflection. In this session we will discuss the rationale, implementation strategies, lessons learned and results of the project. A demonstration of the technology used will be provided.
