Abstract

This study aimed to develop and implement a progressive e-learning teaching method in the teaching of human anatomy. For analysis of the effect of new teaching methods, we made a survey of user satisfaction, content difficulty, and course management. The e-learning content was developed by the authors and implemented to class, practice, and tests, for 16 weeks. The survey was conducted on sophomores of nursing science (NS, n=42) and sports science (SS, n=26), at Kangwon National University. These two groups of students filled out a questionnaire related to effectiveness of e-learning content and tool in learning human anatomy. The results were compared between two groups. The majority of the students were satisfied with the content, difficulty level, and management of the e-learning course. Through the board of virtual classroom, all of the students played positive manners in communication and activity. Students pointed out 'reinforcement of multimedia data', 'improvement of technical service' and 'addition of broad information' as the most notable improvements of content. Therefore, we conclude that an e-learning course for undergraduate nursing science and sports science students can provide an effective learning model.
