Learning Objective 1: The learner will be able to understand the situated e-learning is an effective method to improve students’ basic medical and nursing knowledge and nursing performance.
Learning Objective 2: The learner will be able to understand the situated e-learning for obstetric-pediatric nursing is a useful learning model and the students satisfy with the program.
The purposes of the project were to design and evaluate the situated e-learning for nursing education.
Methods:
The ADDIE model (Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation) was used to develop and test the situated e-learning nursing educational program. The case scenarios were constructed and revised based on the real clinical cases. One-group pretest-posttest pre-experimental design was used. Twenty-seven junior nursing students from a university in southern Taiwan participated in this study. The nursing competence assessment was used to evaluate the learning effectiveness. The perceived satisfaction on using the system was also evaluated.
Results:
Five case scenarios in obstetrics and pediatrics were developed including high-risk pregnant, neonatal nursing, acute lymphoblastic leukemia, nephrotic syndrome, and infectious gastroenteritis. The situated nursing e-learning significantly enhanced nursing students’ basic medical and nursing knowledge and nursing performance (t = 3.11 – 5.37, p < 0.01). Students were satisfied with this program, and indicated their willingness to use this program again.
Conclusion:
The situated nursing e-learning is a useful learning model. Future implication in clinical setting for novice nurses can be explored.
