UC College of Nursing designated again as an Apple Distinguished School
University of Cincinnati College of Nursing has been recognized as an Apple Distinguished School for the 2024–2027 program term. The college has been selected for this distinction since 2014, based on its commitment to continuous innovation in education and using Apple products to inspire, imagine and impact teaching and learning.
"Leadership in innovation and educational excellence is critical in preparing the next generation of nurse leaders to provide unbiased, safe care to diverse populations, ensuring that all individuals receive a fair and just opportunity to live with optimal health,” says Alicia Ribar, PhD, APRN, CNE, dean of the UC College of Nursing.
Since the early inception of its digital transformation, the college has embraced technology as a catalyst to prepare nurses to adapt, innovate and provide the best care for all in the dynamic and complex reality of health care. The purposeful adoption of technology and digital technologies have supported the shift in delivery of nursing education in and beyond the classroom, simulation labs and clinical settings, enabling students to collaborate across teams, streamlining decision-making and improving the delivery of patient-centered care.
"Our college-wide Apple ecosystem empowers faculty to design innovative ways to teach and students to take ownership of their learning,” says Matt Rota, PhD, assistant dean for technology and innovation & director, Office of Learning Design and Digital Innovation.
See firsthand how our one-to-one program has supported and guided the purposeful combination of technology, content, and pedagogy, allowing us to reimagine the delivery of nursing education in and beyond the classroom, simulation laboratory and clinical settings.
