Gosh I graduated 35 + years ago. I wish we could have had this when I started. Nothing is the same as when I started. We went to Nursing schools at hospitals. Graduated with diplomas(Hats and pins ceremonies.) then went on to get a BSN if we wanted. We learned on the clinical side more than the class room. Good luck there is never enough nurses.
Haha I agree it is very different! My mom went through nursing school before me and always remind me of the changes. I love learning in the clinical setting more even though at times COVID didnt allow us. My orientation and white coat ceremony was even online too! Looking forward to learning as much as I can as a new grad now :)
In my opinion, I say it is! My school even gives us an ipad so we can take notes easier. I like to download powerpoints and write on them in lecture for notes! A laptop is good for zoom and typing notes but its all about your personal preference :)
