This pretest-posttest quasi-experimental research aimed to compare the effectiveness of conventional and computer assisted instruction programs on nursing care during pregnancy. Retention in learning and satisfaction level in using computer assisted instructions were tested 2 weeks after students received the programs. Participants were the 2nd year nursing students of Nakhon Ratchasima's Boromarajonani Nursing College during the academic year 201. Sample was 46 students, selected by using G*POWER program. Sampling without replacement into the experimental and control groups of 23 participants each was applied. Research instruments for experimental group were: 1) a computer assisted instruction program, validated with an IOC yielding .67-1.00, and 2) a satisfaction questionnaire in using computer assisted instruction, validated with CVI of .98. Instruments used in the control group were the lesson plans, validated by 3 experts with an IOC of .67-1.00. The knowledge of nursing care during pregnancy were repeated measured (pretest, posttest and retention in learning), using the same multiple-choice exam for both groups. Reliability of exam was tested, obtaining a KR-21 of .77. Data were analyzed using both paired sample t-test and independent sample t-test.
Results showed that the experimental group had higher mean score in the post test (Mean=15.65, SD=1.61) than the control group (Mean=13.96, SD=1.39). The mean score of retention in learning of experimental group (Mean=15.83, SD=1.46) was higher than in the control group (Mean=14.26, SD=1.42) with statistically significant difference (p<.001). The satisfaction level in using computer assisted instructions was high (Mean=4.31, SD=.61).
Therefore, results of the present study suggest that computer-assisted instructions can be used with nursing students as a self-learning resource.
