Summary
Educational design research transformed a limited in-person Good Clinical Practices (GCP) inspection course into an accessible online format. This expansion aims to equip more public health professionals with essential GCP knowledge and skills for safer, more reliable clinical research.
Area of Science:
- Public Health
- Educational Technology
- Clinical Research Management
Background:
- Good Clinical Practices (GCP) are essential for ensuring participant safety and data integrity in clinical research.
- Current face-to-face GCP inspection training is limited by budget and capacity, reaching only 15 professionals annually.
- The World Health Organization has offered a decade-long, but restricted, global GCP inspection course in Indonesia.
Purpose of the Study:
- To address the challenge of limited access to Good Clinical Practices (GCP) training for public health professionals.
- To redesign a global face-to-face GCP inspection course into an online authentic learning environment.
- To identify and discuss design principles for effective online GCP training through Educational Design Research (EDR).
Main Methods:
- Educational Design Research (EDR) methodology was employed to guide the transition from face-to-face to online learning.
- The study involved the development and implementation of an online authentic learning environment for GCP inspection training.
- A beta test was conducted with 12 participants to evaluate the new online course.
Main Results:
- The transition to an online authentic learning environment was successfully accomplished using EDR.
- A beta test of the online course involved 12 participants, providing initial feedback on its effectiveness.
- The research yielded valuable design principles for creating scalable and accessible online GCP training.
Conclusions:
- Educational Design Research provides a robust framework for developing effective online professional development in public health.
- The online authentic learning environment offers a scalable solution to overcome the limitations of traditional face-to-face GCP training.
- The findings support the broader implementation of online learning to enhance global capacity in Good Clinical Practices inspections.

01:56Ethics in Research
Today, scientists agree that good research is ethical in nature and is guided by a basic respect for human dignity and safety. However, this has not always been the case. Modern researchers must demonstrate that the research they perform is ethically sound.
01:24Nursing Process for Patient and Caregiver Teaching I: Assessment and Diagnosis
The nursing process provides a clinical decision-making framework for patients and families to establish and implement a personalized care plan. Since part of the nurse's duties is to teach patients, the steps of the nursing process are the most effective way to approach instruction. The nursing process and the teaching-learning process are inextricably linked.

01:24Nursing Process for Patient and Caregiver Teaching II: Planning and Implementation
Planning for learning involves the development of a teaching plan. Teaching plans are similar to nursing care plans—both follow the steps of the nursing process. Planning in the teaching process involves setting goals and outcomes. Here, goals identify what a patient needs to achieve to understand a healthcare topic better, whereas the outcomes are the action to be performed by the patient to achieve the goal within a timeframe. For example, if the goal is to educate the patient about insulin...
01:20Nursing Process for Patient and Caregiver Teaching III: Evaluation and Documentation
Evaluation of the teaching process enables the nurse to determine if the patient's learning needs were met and if training was effective. If the expected outcomes are not met, the care plan is revised, and additional education or reinforcement is provided. Nurses can ask questions after the session or obtain feedback to assess the patient's understanding of the topic.
Nurses can use several methods to evaluate patient outcomes. For example, oral questions can assess cognitive learning, patient...
