Abstract: With technology, a rapid change in health care practices have occured. In this review, it is aimed to emphasize the importance of technology for nursing education and to introduce some technology applications used in nursing education. The widespread use of technology in nursing services due to the need for nursing workforce affects nursing education. Both the increase in expectations in the quality of delivery of developing health services and the efforts to increase the competence of students have made use of technology in nursing practice a necessity. In the developing world of education, the use of technology is expected to serve as a bridge in the gap between theoretical knowledge and clinical practice, which is the problem of traditional methods. Through these applications, students can see the result of the action by finding countless possibilities of experimentation, which has a positive effect on learning success. For an effective training that can adapt to rapidly changing education and maintenance technologies, a change process involving all parties should be planned. It is thought that the presence of the generation of educators and students who can actively use these technologies will have an important role in carrying the nursing profession to the future. In this review, the importance of the use of technology in nursing education and some of the applications of technology used in nursing education in the world are specified.
