creative software

PROGRAMS THAT ALLOW USERS TO DRAW, PAINTT, RENDER, RECORD MUSIC AND SOUND

INPUT UNITS

RECEIVE INFO TO BE PROCESSED

using feedback

Rather than creating new knowledge, using feedback is implementing input in the form of opinions about or reactions to something such as shared knowledge.

Seasoned nurses

SEASONED OR EXPERIENCED NURSES SEARCH FOR WAYS TO ENHANCE THEIR KNOWLEDGE

open source software

SOFTWARE THAT IS FREE TO ALL

Feedback

input in the form of opinions about or reactions to something. Nurses use feedback to rethink, revise, and apply knowledge to a clinical situation

neural networks

interconnected simple processing devices or simplified models of the brain and nervous system that consist of a considerable number of elements or units linked together in a pattern of connections

What is the most important type of software?

open source

Data

raw facts, rather than processed information

manifest informtation

recognized information

meaningful data

simple, verifiable, and secure

bit

smallest chunk of data

Decision software

software that is being developed as part of AI to give nurses a prediction of possible consequences to an action

epistemology

study of the nature and origin of knowledge, what it means to know

Human technology interface

the point at which the human and computer interact.

Knowledge transparency

using knowledge without conscious thought- making knowledge transparent

Dirty data

when there are errors in the data, duplicate records, errors

example of knowledge processing

when you assess a patient who is short of breath and you know to elevate the head of the bed to alleviate their distress

communication software

ENABLE USERS TO DIALOGUE, SHARE AND NETWORK WITH OTHER USERS VIA EXCHANGE OF EMAIL OR INSTANT MESSAGES,

Information Science

ENABLES THE PROCESSING OF INFORMATION THE INPUT, PROCESSING, OUTPUT, AND FEEDBACK OF DATA AND INFORMATION THROUGH TECHNOLOGY

OUTPUT UNITS

WHERE THE OUTCOMES OR RESULTS OF THE PROCESSING ARE FOUND

HIDDEN UNITS

WORK IN BETWEEN INPUT AND OUTPUT UNITS

Knowledge workers

WORK WITH INFORMATION AND GENERATING INFORMATION AND KNOWLEDGE AS A PRODUCT

productivity software

COMMONLY USED BOTH IN THE WORKPLACE AND ON PERSONAL COMPUTERS.

what can compromise data integrity

COMPROMISED DATA THROUGH HUMAN ERROR, VIRUSES, WORMS, OTHER BUGS, HARDWARE FAILURES OR CRASHES, TRANSMISSION ERRORS AND/OR HACKERS ENTERING THE SYSTEM

Innovator nurses

INNOVATORS INTRODUCE NEW METHODS, IDEAS OR PRODUCTS

Networks

INTERCONNECTED SIMPLE PROCESSING DEVICES OR SIMPLIFIED MODELS OF THE BRAIN AND NERVOUS SYSTEM THAT CONSIST OF A NUMBER OF ELEMENTS/UNITS (ANALOGS OF NEURONS) LINKED TOGETHER IN A PATTERN OF CONNECTIONS (ANALOGS OF SYNAPSES)

input devices

KEYBOARD, MOUSE, JOYSTICKS (USED FOR PLAYING COMPUTER GAMES), GAME CONTROLLERS, PADS, WEB CAMERAS (WEBCAMS), STYLUS

Practice managers

KNOWLEDGE MANAGERS-CAPTURING THE PROCESSING COLLECTIVE EXPERTISE AND DISTRIBUTING IT WHERE IT CAN CREATE THE LARGEST BENEFIT

Nursing Science

THE APPLICATION/USAGE OF INFORMATION AND KNOWLEDGE IN ORGANIZATIONS

what makes data dirty

THE DATA THAT WE PROCESS INTO INFORMATION MUST BE OF HIGH QUALITY AND INTEGRITY TO CREATE MEANING TO INFORM OUR ASSESSMENTS AND DECISION MAKING

Cognitive Science

THE STUDY OF THE MIND AND HOW INFO IS PROCESSED IN THE MIND.

acquiring knowledge

act of gaining existing knowledge rather than creating new knowledge.

processing knowledge

act of gathering and collecting existing knowledge rather than creating new knowledge.

computer-based information systems

are combinations of hardware, software and telecommunications networks that people build and use to collect, create, and distribute useful data, typically in organizational settings

Central processing unit (CPU)

brain of the computer

latent information

capable, but not yet obvious

connectionism

component of cognitive science that uses computer modeling through artificial neural networks to try and explain human intellectual abilities, rather than the awareness and understanding of a set of information and ways that information can be made useful to support a specific task or arrive at a decision

Artificial Intelligence (AI)

conception, development, and implementation of informatics tools based on intelligent technologies.

byte

consists of 8 bits

Watson

created by IBM and helps to advance medical diagnoses

generating knowledge

creation of new knowledge

Processed information

data with meaning

information age

data, information, and knowledge are both accessible and able to be manipulated by more people than ever before in history.

disseminating knowledge

distribution of existing knowledge, rather than the creation of new knowledge

Cognitive Informatics (CI)

field of study that bridges the gap in understanding regarding how information is processed in the mind and in the computer

Computer Science

focus on computers, hardware, software that makes up evolving systems. getting/manipulating data and information by nurses
