What I have learned in informatics is how to browse different databases to find different articles to help us with research. On last week we went to the University of Alabama's Roger Science Library to get an orientation to CINHAL and different databases. There library has a lot of different resources and journals that we can access to help with research. We also was oriented to the University of Alabama's cataglog and how to go online to access their web page. Informatics is teaching us many different things about technology and how to manuver in the upcoming years of technology to come. I am beginning to get the understanding of the class and what it is meant for and what we are to be learning, at first i was a little uncertain of what was going to be required of us in this class. We allo went over chapters 1 and 2 in Informatics which talked about the Major Theories Supporting Health Care Informatics and Chapter 2 dealth with Computer Information and health Care Informatics Literacy. I learned the meaning of some new wods such as truncation which are symbols used to help spell out words or to help give the meaning of a word.There are a lot of terms that i am beginning to put into my technology vocabulary bcaause of informatics.
