Abstract
The present study is a convergence study aimed at investigating the effects of the blended learning method on self-directed learning and learning satisfaction of nursing students. A nonequivalent control group was designed to conduct a pre-post test for this study. The participants were assigned to the experimental(n=70) or control group(n=68). Data was analyzed using ${\chi}^2$-test, independent t-tset, and ANCOVA. The results of this study showed that self-directed learning(F=4.122, p=.044), learning satisfaction (F=4.714, p=.032) were significantly higher in the experimental group with blended learning applied than in the control group that received lecture courses for the subject adult health nursing. In other words, this study found that the blended learning method, which was designed to enable students to learn given tasks on their own outside teaching-centered lectures, can enhance the learning ability of nursing students. The results of this study indicate the need to conduct repeated studies regarding blended learning in various subjects and to develop content considering self-directed learning and learning satisfaction of learners.
