This study is a methodological research aimed at developing a program outcome assessment system for 'Utilization of Information and Communication Technology and the Latest Healthcare Technology' as required for nursing education accreditation. To ensure the theoretical validity of the assessment system, Kim's evaluation model (2009) and Zimmaro's rubric development stages (2004) were applied. The program outcome assessment system for information and communication and healthcare technology was developed, encompassing performance criteria, performance level, achievement goals, curriculum, evaluation methods, criteria, and the Close-the-Loop. The resulting assessment system is anticipated to be effectively utilized in nursing education, demonstrating broad applicability. This study is significant in providing specific directions for the development of program outcome assessment systems in undergraduate nursing programs. Further research is expected to evaluate and analyze program outcomes based on the applied assessment system.

The purpose of this study is to develop a nursing activity cost calculation program based on Lee's doctoral dissertation using TD-ABC. The developed program has been supplemented with data storage, print out, and graph conversion functions to expand the application possibility. The development of the program consisted of three steps: program requirements analysis, program design and development, and program validation. This program was designed not only to do the cost calculation, but also to compare the cost-effectiveness and cost consumption trends. Consequently, this program is meaningful in that the nursing manager can obtain the cost information necessary for nursing unit management and extend the utilization so that the cost management strategy can be established based on the cost information. Therefore, we propose that the cost-management capacity of clinical nurses should be strengthened and the nursing performance measurement research should be expanded by applying it to various actual clinical nursing management settings. It is suggested that this program should be used as a training medium to strengthen nurse cost management capacity by combining nursing management curriculum at undergraduate level.

Purpose: To identify the effects of a communication program on nursing students' incivility, critical thinking, and clinical practice stress. Methods: A randomized control group pretest-posttest study was conducted. Fifty randomly selected nursing students were divided into experimental and control groups. A 160-minute communication program was applied to the experimental group and a second survey was conducted two weeks later, shortly after their clinical practice. Results: There was a statistically significant difference in the incivility experienced in the clinical practice after application of the communication program, and refusal in the sub-categories of incivility was statistically significant in this group. Conclusion: It is necessary to foster communication skills for nursing students. Communication programs reduce incivility. Therefore, nursing educators need to recognize the importance of communication during clinical practice and consider incorporating it into their regular curricula.
