Teaching in nursing is a dynamic, complex and an abstract concept. Teaching is a system of directed and deliberate action that is intended to induce learning through a series of directed activities. Within this process, the faculty is responsible for creating environments and experiences which encourages learners to discover and construct knowledge for them. Today nursing education is poised for bringing about sweeping changes. The driving forces for these changes are numerous and difficult to isolate. These include increasing multiculturalism of society; more financial resources in education and health care; expanding technology and the need for life-long learning; and the increasing public demand for accountability of educational outcomes. Some of the major forces and issues which nurse educators must consider as they discharge the responsibilities of their role are discussed in the paper. Utilization of internet for research materials by teachers and nurse practioner will enhance research implementation and enable the practice of evidence based nursing. The purpose of this paper is to discuss and reveal possibilities of using online technology by nurse educators, especially computer-based communication tools, potentially permit greater flexibility for users.
