Smarthinking

Do you know about Smarthinking? This is a service that NDSCS supports to help you with tutoring or topic help 24/7. For nursing students, there is help with Introductory anatomy & Physiology, Math, Biology, Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, and Writing. You can ask questions, interact with a tutor, and submit writing for a critique.

You will need a username and password to get started that you can get from an Instructor or from the library. Once you have accessed the site, you set up your personal username and password so you can access the site at any time.

Don't sit at home frustrated - you can get answers when you need them!

Micromedex

The Micromedex Academic Program provides you with access to evidence based information, the same that is used in hospitals across the country. This year there are several new features. Check with your instructor about access, as this is restricted to students in healthcare programs and requires a password to log on.

There are tutorials and helps online. Just remember, this is NOT for use at work, only as part of your education and classwork. Please respect this restriction that Thomson requires of us for a free subscription.
