Abstract

Purpose : This study assessed the improvement of competency levels for participants, as well as their satisfaction from completion of the special international disaster response program. Methods : The program structure followed an intensive two-week course that included a combination of lectures, discussions, case studies, and field trips. "ICN Framework of Disaster Nursing Competencies" was used for designing the program. A pre-post survey was done to measure the change in the competencies of students and assess their satisfaction after finishing the program. Focus group interviews were also performed to further understand the attitudes of participants toward the disaster issues. Results : The overall pre-program test score for disaster competency was $2.18{\pm}0.68$ and the post-program test score was $6.30{\pm}0.84$, which showed statistically significant gains in all competency items (p <.001). The general satisfaction of participants with the program was quite high, demonstrated by a mean score of $4.5{\pm}0.51$. The benefits for students from program participation included increased knowledge and better understanding of the important roles of international organizations and NGOs. Conclusion : The international disaster education programs are necessary to provide an opportunity for students to increase their disaster competency. In addition, future development of a unified educational competency framework is also necessary.

연구 목적 : 우리나라는 인도주의적 차원에서 국제구조대와 한국재난대응팀을 파견하고 있으며 이는 공적개발원조의 하나인 해외긴급구호활동에 해당하는 것으로 주로 소방대원과 의료인들이 활동하고 있다. 따라서 이 연구는 글로벌 재난 역량 개발 프로그램이 응급구조과와 간호학과 학생들에게 어떠한 영향을 미쳤는지 살펴보고 이를 통해서 추후 학부교육에 대한 개선방안을 모색하고자 한다. 연구 방법 : 본 프로그램은 ICN에서 제시한 "재난간호역량체계"를 기본 틀로 4개 영역 10개 도메인으로 역량을 구분하여 프로그램을 설계하였다. 프로그램은 2013년 8월 12일부터 23일까지 2주간 사례학습, 토론, 전문가 특강, 태국 카렌지역 현지방문 등 다양한 방식으로 운영되었으며 참석학생은 총 18명이었다. 프로그램에 대한 만족도는 5점 척도로 측정하였고, 국제재난역량 지식수준은 10점 척도로 측정하여 프로그램 전후 지식수준을 비교분석하였다. 그 외 심층 인터뷰를 진행하여 재난에 대한 학생들의 태도 변화를 보았다. 연구 결과 : 프로그램 만족도는 $4.50{\pm}0.51$로 매우 높았으며 국제재난관련 지식의 변화는 전체 항목 평균 $2.18{\pm}0.68$에서 $6.30{\pm}0.84$로 상승하였다(p <.001). 그 외 프로그램의 신청 동기는 다중응답으로 다양한 경험을 쌓기 원해서(14명), 해외봉사에 대한 관심(11명), 국제기구에 대한 관심(7명) 등으로 조사되었다. 결 론 : 첫째, 응급구조과와 간호학과 학부 교육과정에서 국제재난에 대한 이해를 증진할 수 있는 교과목이 개설되거나 기존의 유사한 과목에서 글로벌 환경에 대한 조기 이해가 선행되도록 하여 국제사회에 진출하고자 하는 학생들에게 다양한 진로를 제시해 주어야 한다. 둘째, 국제재난관리에 대한 교육은 학습효과를 증진하기 위해서 시물레이션 학습 또는 재난현장을 방문한 현장학습 등 다양한 방법의 적용이 고려되어야 국제사회 및 문화에 대한 이해도모와 태도변화 그리고 어학 학습의 중요성을 자각하게 할 수 있다. 셋째, 학부 단계에서 국제재난교육을 통해서 이해를 도모하고 진로와 관련한 다양한 정보습득 및 참여기회가 증진되도록 하여 졸업 후 실무에 적용이 가능하도록 교육하는 것이 필요하다.
