title: Development of e-Learning for problem solving approach of nursing students.
abstract: The problem-solving approach to nursing is labeled the "nursing process". It is common to use cases of simulated patients described on paper as teaching materials in order to learn nursing processes. In the present study, we developed a prototype e-learning system for improving the problem solving abilities of nursing students. The teaching materials included the following 8 nursing education categories: basic nursing; adult nursing (chronic and acute); pediatric nursing; mental health and psychiatric nursing; community health nursing (maternal and child, and geriatric); and occupational health nursing.
