본 연구의 목적은 PBL 연계 시뮬레이션 기반 통합간호교육과정을 이수한 신졸업간호사와 교과목 중심의 전통적 간호교육과정을 이수한 신졸업간호사간의 간호수행능력정도와 간호수행능력 자신감의 차이를 표준화환자 기반 간호수행평가를 활용하여 비교분석하는 것이다. 연구대상자는 전통적 간호교육과정을 이수한 신졸업간호사 39명과 통합간호교육과정을 이수한 신졸업간호사 35명, 총 74명이었다. 연구방법은 두 대상자 그룹간에 표준화환자 기반 간호실무능력 평가 시험에서 간호수행능력 평가점수와 간호수행능력 자신감을 비교하기 위한 비동등성 대조군 사후 시차설계를 적용한 유사 실험 연구로 수집된 자료는 SPSS 19.0 프로그램을 사용하여, Fisher's exact test, t-test, Pearson's correlation coefficient, ANCOVA를 이용하여 분석하였다. 표준화환자를 활용한 간호실무수행능력 평가시험을 실시한 결과 통합간호교육과정 이수 신졸업간호사와 교과목 중심의 전통적 간호교육과정 이수 신졸업간호사 간에 표준화 환자가 채점한 간호수행능력 점수는 차이가 없었으나, 통합간호교육과정 이수 신졸업간호사의 교수자가 평가한 기술적 술기 점수, 비기술적 술기 점수와 간호수행능력에 대한 자신감이 대조군에 비해 유의하게 높았다. 본 연구의 결과를 바탕으로 간호교육과정에 PBL 연계 시뮬레이션 기반 교과를 적용할 것을 제언하며, 통합간호교육과정을 이수한 신졸업간호사의 임상간호 현장에서의 실무능력과 환자 성과 변화를 장기추적 관찰하는 추후 연구가 필요하다.

Based on the above data, a systematic plan was drawn. Results: The 13 APN areas could be divided into 7 groups based on a review of the APN system and curriculum for the 13 areas. Analysis based on clinical practice showed that the 13 APN areas could be divided into 4 groups. Two themes and seven categories emerged in FGI. The two themes were 1) 13 APN areas that need to be discussed, 2) improving the curriculum for APN. Considering these themes from FGI and the system of the medical subspecialty board, results could be integrated into 2 groups - clinical area and non-clinical area. Conclusion: The 13 APN areas need to be integrated in order to activate the APN system. For that, further discussions on improvements and a standard curriculum according to legislation related to APN should be carried out.

Results showed the viewpoints of stakeholders on the characteristics of future nurse graduates were comprised of four elements: knowledge that meets standards; essential skills for self-development and lifelong learning process; good morals and professional ethics in providing nursing care; and nurse competencies in teamwork, communication, language, research, management, IT, life skills, and global literacy. The viewpoints on the development of the nursing curriculum focus on four elements: the learner, teaching and learning, course content, and instructor tasks. For learners, the admission criteria should include a minimum not only of knowledge, but also positive attitude, science, and art skills, since the nursing profession is both a science and the art of caring. Teaching and learning elements should be authentic, including exposure to real situations, an integrated network, and activities that improve nursing care. Course content was comprised of an updated curriculum, humanized nursing care, student center, theory and practice with moral integration, case-based study, critical thinking, multidisciplinary work, and love for the nursing profession. Instructor tasks are to elicit student ideas, provide opportunities to learn, support infrastructure, support technology use, and extra-curricular activities to develop the competencies of nursing students. Recommendations were that the curriculum administration should review the selection process of student candidates and instructional management to achieve expected outcomes of nursing characteristics in the future. The nurse lecturer should provide authentic and integrated instruction, decrease lecturing, cultivate a lifelong learning process, and sustain the nursing characteristics.

The various and serious types of disaster occur everyday and everywhere on the earth. There is no doubt that it is very timely to discuss about the effectiveness and preparedness of disaster. The purpose of this study is to develop a curriculum on the disaster management through reviewing disaster concepts and the disaster management system. For the empirical relevance of the study, researchers participated in a couple or more disaster training program, reviewed references, and consulted to the experts working on action parts in the area. As a result, the 'Integrated Disaster Management System Model (IDMSM)' was designed, in which four dimensions were explained. Then the 'Disaster Curriculum Model (DCM)' was explored with its theoretical framework based on the system model. The developed curriculum is composed of four levels ; the introductory course, the fundamental course, the advanced course, and the expert course. From this DCM, basically the course-outlines of two subjects in the introductory course, 18 subjects in the fundamental course (5 of direct services. 13 of indirect services) were developed. Also each course-outline was explored by its course objective, learning objectives, contents, and its length. Finally to make the most of the results, suggestions are proposed. The governmental considerations on the policy should support the systematic and integrated educational program to practice, appointing 「Disaster School」 or 「Disaster Training Center」 of relevance and accountabilities. The further study should explore the higher levels of the DCM through interdisciplinary efforts, and develop the text aterials. ilities. The further study should explore the higher levels of the DCM through interdisciplinary efforts, and develop the text materials.
