Abstract

Nursing education today is very different with advances in science and technology. Nurse educators are using distance education in an effort to offer students the ability to practice varying skills in a safe non-threatening environment. This quasi-experimental, post-hoc causal comparative study had a two group post-test only design. There were two conditions: face-to-face classroom delivery of course content and distance education with online course content. The study was designed to compare effectiveness of distance education and face-to-face interaction through reviewing test grades and class grades. Additionally students were asked to rate their satisfaction of the different modalities.
