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

Data

Raw facts, rather than processed information

Computer

Regarding inputting, processing and output date, an electronic information processing machine, a machine that accepts data inputted via a variety of devices, processes data, stores data, outputs data.

Seasoned Nurses

Seasoned or experienced nurses search for ways to enhance their knowledge

Decision Software

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

Open Source Software

Software that is free to all. The open source software movement was begun by developers who wished to offer their creations to others

Epistemology

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

Hidden Units

(All other neurons- not sensory or motor) work in between input and output units

Practice Managers

(Knowledge Managers)- capturing the processing collective expertise and distributing it where it can create the largest beneift

Output Units

(Motor Neurons) Where the outcomes or results of the processing are found

Input Units

(sensory neurons) that receive info to be processed

Feedback

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

Knowledge Transperency

means using knowledge without conscious thought making knowledge transparent. The transparency of knowledge suggests that as knowledge grows and expands its use becomes more transparent. A person uses this knowledge during practice without even being consciously aware of which aspect of knowledge is being used at any given moment.

Information Age

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

Disseminating Knowledge

Disseminating knowledge is the distribution of existing knowledge, rather than the creation of new knowledge.

Information Science

Enables the processing of information the input, processing, output, and feedback of data and information through technology. Sub-discipline of computer science, to understand and rationalize management of technology withing organization. need to have the right information accessible by the right people in the right settings and applied in the right way and at the right time.

Dirty Data

When there are errors in the data, duplicate records, error, as well as other errors such as incomplete or outdated data.

Knowledge Workers

Work with information and generating information and knowledge as a product

Neural Networks

Can be thought of as interconnected simple processing devices or simplified models of the brain and nervous system that consist of a considerable num,ber of elements or units linked together in a pattern of connections

Informations Systems

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

Computer Science

Focus on computers/hardware/software that make up evolving systems. getting/ manipulating data and information by nurses, who synthesize these into evolving knowledge and wisdom. Helps to cut down amount of information to a more managable size and organize it so you can work with it efficiently through use of datebase/programs technology

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 pattern of connections (analogs of synapses)

Connectionism

Is a 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.

Processed information

Is data with meaning

Wisdom

Is knowledge applied in a practical way, 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.

Manifest Information

Is obvious of clearly apparent

Knowledge

Is 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 destination

Examples of Input devices

Keyboard, mouse, joysticks, game controllers, pads, web cameras, stylus,

Acquiring Knowledge

Knowledge acquisition is the act of gaining existing knowledge rather than creating new knowledge

Generating Knowledge

Knowledge generation is the creation of new knowledge

Processing Knowledge

Knowledge processing is the act of gathering and collecting existing knowledge rather than creating new knowledge

Latent Information

That is which is not yet realized or apparent

Nursing Science

The application/ usage of information and knowledge in organizations, examine interfacing or interaction between people, organizations, and information systems. To maintain, enhance, or restore health, and acquire , process, generate, and disseminate nursing knowledge to advance nursing profession

Artificial Intelligence

The field of AI deals with the conception, development, and implementation of informatics tools based on intelligent technologies. This field captures the complex process of human thought and intelligence

Cognitive Science

The interdisciplinary field of cognitive science studies the mind, intelligence, and behavior from an information processing perspective.
