The purpose of this study was to develop a nursing education program using Web-based simulation for the care of patients with intracranial pressure. An additional aim was to verify the effectiveness of nursing knowledge, problem-solving competency, a critical thinking disposition, and the expectation of learning transfer. Methods: This was an experimental study using repeated measures with a nonequivalent control group. The participants were senior nursing students, randomly assigned to experimental (n=30) and control (n=30) groups. The experimental group participated in a nursing education program that included Web-based lectures, pre-briefing, Web-based simulation, and debriefing, whereas the control group’s program included only Web-based lectures. Results: A significant difference was found between the experimental and control groups in problem-solving competency (F=5.84, p=.005), critical thinking disposition (F=4.25, p=.021), and the expectation of learning transfer (t=2.30, p<.025). Also, a significant interaction between time and group was found in problem-solving competency and critical thinking disposition. Conclusion: The results of this study showed that the education program using Web-based simulation positively affected nursing students’ problem-solving competency, critical thinking disposition, and the expectation of learning transfer. Therefore, this program can be considered a valuable aid in educating nursing students.

Purpose: This study was conducted to examine the effects of Clinical practice learning using a web-based e-book on nursing students' learning motivation, knowledge achievement and satisfaction with clinical practice. Methods: The participants in this study were 69 third-year nursing students (34 in the experimental and 35 in the control group) from a C-university in G-city, Korea, who were engaged in one-week clinical practicum in a gastroenterology ward. The data were analyzed by x²-test, Fisher's exact test, and t-test with the SPSS program 20.0. Results: After intervention, compared to the control group, the experimental group reported significant difference in Learning motivation (t=-3.61, p<.001), knowledge achievement(t=-2.92, p<.001), and satisfaction with clinical practice (t=-8.78, p<.001) in the training course using Mosby's nursing skills. Conclusion: These results identified that clinical practice learning using Mosby’s Nursing Skills was effective for the improvement of learning motivation, knowledge achievement and satisfaction with clinical practice. These results indicate that the implementation of an e-Learning needs to be continued as an effective educational tool. Also, it is needed to research more for better ways to implement e-Learning on students’ practicum.

지구과학 학습 내용들은 교실이나 실험실에서 통제하기 어려운 내용들이 많다. 따라서 이를 극복할 수 있는 하나의 방안으로 가상현실 기술을 도입하여 웹상에서 활용할 수 있는 3D 가상현실 학습프로그램을 개발하였다. 개발된 프로그램은 701명의 중학교 학생들에게 투입되었다. 그 결과 몰입감을 통한 흥미유발 및 동기유발에 아주 긍정적인 효과가 있었으며, 공간지각 능력 향상에도 큰 도움이 되는 것으로 보여졌다.

The fast growth of the area of Industrial Technology has brought about the drastic change in educational environments, especially for foreign language teaching. The most noticeable change is that the information which was usually under the control of instructors can now be directly conveyed to leaners throughout multiple kinds of information channels. With this unstoppable trend, the instructors no‘w strongly motivated to focus on various types of media app1ication. Given these facts, this paper main1y deals with the web-based instruction (WBI) among others, since WBI is a well-known and easily accessible type of instruction. In this study, WBI is approached with two different aspects. One is a functional aspect. The other is a psychological aspect. The WBI enables learners to choose any information on any fields, and it makes learners choose their own learning leve1 according to their needs and 1earning ability. In this paper, the future of WBI is a1so discussed with three different ang1es: software, hardware, and educationa1 diversity. In addition, this paper argues for the need to incorporate into foreign language teaching all advantages verified to be useful so far in both fields-traditional classroom. teaching and WBI.

방학동안 학습자들은 학습을 정지하거나, 보충을 받거나, 체험학습을 하는 등 개인차가 많이 발생하 게 된다. 또한 방학으로 인해 방학 직전․직후의 학습은 학습의 연장선이 되기 힘들며, 이 기간의 학습 내용도 부실해지기 쉽다. 최근 들어 집합교육과 e-Learning 학습의 장점을 접목시킨 Blended-Learning 학습이 효과적이라는 목소리가 커지고 있다. 본 연구는 이러한 상황에 맞추어 Blended-Learning의 원리로 방학 전 집합교육으로 기초를 다지고, 방학 중 일부기간동안 e-Learning을 통해 차시 학습을 진행하고, 개학 후 집합교육으로 다음 차시의 학습을 받을 수 있도록 교육과정을 재구성하여 적용하였다. Blended-Learning을 이용한 방학 중 학습 은 학습자에게 학습 지속력을 높이고 방학 전․후의 학습을 충실하게 진행할 수 있었고, 학업성취도를 향상 시켜주었다.
