Purpose: The purpose of this study was to develop an e-learning orientation program for nursing students(junior), to evaluate the program, and to find out its effects on adapting to clinical practicum.
Methods: The e-learning orientation program was developed according to ADDIE model(analysis, design, develop, implement, evaluate) using an Active Tutor Program. Twelve nursing professionals and 31 nursing students(learners) evaluated the e-learning orientation program. Thirty one nursing students participated in the e-learning orientation program both on-line and off-line.
Results: The e-learning orientation program consisted of 5 parts including ¡®Taking a lesson in gastrointestinal tract¡¯, ¡®Fundamental nursing skill and reading a medical chart¡¯, ¡®Taking a ward orientation by head nurse¡¯, ¡®Clinical practice with preceptors¡¯, and ¡®Writing for case report¡¯. Adapting scores to clinical practicum were significantly different between pre-test and post-test(t=-5.76, p=.000).
Conclusion: The e-learning orientation program of on-line and off-line has an effect on adapting to clinical practicum for nursing students.
