  • This study verified the effects that a programming-based TPACK education program, through design-based research on TPACK, had on pre-service teachers. The research subjects were pre-service teachers attending teacher training at a university in Korea, and 129 control groups and 126 experimental groups were recruited through lectures. The treatment used a TPACK educational program developed in a design-based study (Kim & Lee, 2019). A TPACK test tool developed by Park and Kang (2014) was used. The test results were analyzed via independent sample t-test and paired sample t-test. The results show that the programming-based TPACK education program (first cycle) was only effective in improving TPK and TPACK, but an effective educational program was developed to improve PCK, TCK, TK (second cycle), PK (third cycle), and CK (final cycle). This design-based research therefore confirmed the development of a programming-based TPACK education program that was effective for improving the TPACK of pre-service teachers.

  • Objectives: Recent studies have shown that tailored messages for cancer screening to the beliefs and stage of cancer screening behavior of individual women increases the take-up probability. Many studies on cancer screening have used the Transtheoretical Model (TTM) to identify variables associated with cancer screening behavior. This study was carried out to identify the cognitive-behavioral factors associated with stomach cancer screening among women aged 40 years and over, and to develop and evaluate a tailored educational program for stomach cancer screening by stages of change. Methods: Building on the TTM constructs, we conducted a quasi-experimental study(N=283) to test the effectiveness of a tailored educational program for endoscopic stomach cancer screening. We carried out pre and post tests in the experimental group(N=162) and the control group(N=121), and the experimental group was subdivided into an on-line group(N=81) and an off-line group(N=81) by educational methodology using e-mail and the postal service. We used the chi-square test, trend test, and paired t-test to test the effectiveness of the program for stomach cancer using a tailored stage-matched messages. Results: To examine the effectiveness of the program for stomach cancer screening by the tailored stage-matched messages, the stage-matched materials were offered to the experimental group(N=162) four times for 4 weeks. The stage-matched materials consisted of the four types for stomach cancer. The tailored message was effective in changing the cognitive-behavioral factors, such as experience process, behavior process, con opinion for stomach cancer, self-efficacy, and the behavioral stages for stomach cancer screening. The stomach cancer screening adherence was higher for the stage-matched materials using postal mail than for those using e-mail. Conclusion: To improve the stomach cancer screening rate, the use of tailored messages for stomach cancer screening will be generated using an expert system. Therefore the implementation of tailored educational program will be supported a partnership between public and private health organizations and increasing awareness of the necessity of community-based interventions.
