Training design using blended learning and its evaluation for emergency center nurses

Abstract

In order for nurses to perform their duties in their departments, they need to adapt to the methods and culture of the department, as well as to have medical and nursing knowledge and skills. Nursing work in the emergency center requires a high level of expertise and involves handling a large amount of medical equipment. The specific procedures for performing tasks are highly individual to each department, so materials and teaching materials must be produced in-house and training must be conducted within the department. In order to allow learners to learn efficiently and independently, the training was reviewed and changed to blended learning. E-learning content was created mainly for medical knowledge and departmental rules. Blended learning was implemented on Moodle as an LMS and operation began. After the system went live, we analyzed learners' learning methods using Moodle logs and surveys. The results suggest that the training design may be useful for training nurses in the field, and we report the findings here.
