Development of Nursing Informatics Education Model for Strengthening Information Processing Capability

Authors : Jihyun Kim

Abstract: This study aimed to develop education model based on Tyler’s four-step curriculum theory to enhance the ability of nursing information processing. The subjects of this study were 37 students of undergraduate nursing science course at the university from September, 1, 2014 to December, 11, 2014. Before class begins, the team work skills were assessed, the reevaluation was made at the end of the class and then data were analyzed using descriptive statistics. Developed curriculum and non-curriculum liking integrated education model to enhance the nursing information processing capability, according to Tylor’s curriculum development and operation procedures. Curriculum course work included the liberal art course (Excel, Word, etc.) and nursing major course which is the title of nursing informatics. Non-curriculum activity included club activity named NISR (Nursing Information and Statistics Research), special lectures about nursing statistics and mobile application development. After the course work, I checked the 3 learning outcomes (the level of information theory and knowledge, mobile application template development ability and data analysis ability. Analysis of academic achievement degree of learning performance based on the above evaluation criteria. Among the 37 students, learning outcome 1 and 2 were found to be more than ‘middle’ but in the case of learning outcome 3-5 students (13.5%) were ‘low’. Student’s teamwork skills after the 1st and 15th lectures of the lectures, the post-test score (3.94, 0.45) was higher than the pre-test score (3.89, 0.39). Curriculum and non-curriculum linkage integrated education model was found to be effective. This study proposes to develop a competency-based curriculum linkage model in accordance with the characteristics of the curriculum.
