Abstract

Technologies like blackboards, overhead projectors and film strips that used to be available in classrooms have been replaced by technologies like computers, internet, simulations, educational videos, mobile devices and social media today and distance education methods like e-learning and mobile learning have gradually become widespread. Educational environments not using these technologies are no more able to meet today's individual and social expectations and needs. Due to all these reasons, every country in today's world has begun restructuring their education by using technological developments and changes. This compilation aims to reveal the effects of rapidly changing and developing technologies on nursing education.
