Internet is a good help and save time in the daily work for most of us registrar nurses. In the stoma therapist (ET) education where students often live in different places, is internet education a good alternative. In a digital classroom as community on internet the student collect tasks, send answers, have contact with the teacher and other students in the course. It is like a classroom and with a webb camera or video a lesson can be hold. The lessons can also be prerecorded so the students can look on it any time. The big different and advantage from a real classroom this community is opened 24 hours a day. Advantage and another positive effect is that student and teacher can communicate and answer the task when it suites them best.

To participants an internet course does not mean less work, all communications must be written and read. This will take more time then verbally communication. One important thing, all communication is written, so it hade to be clear to avoid misunderstanding. To learn and understand each other the student and teacher have to have a two way communication.

The practical educations can the students carry through on the hospital in the home city with support from the local ET- nurse and the practical examination can be done with instruction from the ET- course. When the students report the examination paper to other students they have to comment and discuss the result in the community. All students most give written comments and ask questions to the other students. The student can not “be seated” quiet, all comments and answers has to be documented. All students become attend.

The stoma therapist education in a community on internet has great opportunities and is a good alternative.
