Abstract

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to explore the experience process of nursing students who have participated in a major converged short-term study abroad program and to present the future direction of short-term study abroad. Methods: This study is a qualitative study based on the grounded theory and method in nursing students' experience of major in a major converged short-term study abroad program. Results: The core category emerged as 'finding myself in another me'. 'as experience the difference' emerged as a causal condition. Action/interaction strategies were found to provide students with these effects: 'a change of attitude on life', 'find continued support resources', 'due to hard reality, putting down the aspiration'. Shown in these results of this study, nursing students were seen to have the simultaneous effect of 'to live as the organizers of life', and 'return to the old life'. Conclusions: The nursing students experience a positive impact on their attitude towards life.

본 연구의 목적은 상징적 상호작용론적 견해에 바탕을 둔 근거이론 방법을 이용하여 간호대학생의 전공 융합한 해외 단기연수 경험에 대한 실체이론을 도출하고, 해외 단기연수가 나아가야 할 방향을 조명하는데 있다. 연구결과를 보면 참여자들은 연수 후 경험으로 내 안의 또 다른 '나'를 발견하고 더 넓은 세상으로 나가고자 하는 열망이 강하게 생기면서 삶에 대한 태도를 변화하기 시작하였고 이는 자아성숙으로 나타났다. 그러나 일부 참여자는 현실에 짓눌려 열망을 내려놓고 예전 삶으로의 회귀를 나타내기도 하였다. 본 연구결과를 토대로 볼 때, 전공 융합한 해외 단기연수 후에는 반드시 추후 프로그램을 운영하여 긍정적으로 변화된 열망, 동기, 자신감 등을 강화 유지시켜 주는 것이 필요하고, 개인 성향에 따른 맞춤형 추후 프로그램을 운영하는 것이 요구된다. 또한 추후 프로그램 운영 시 연수에 참여한 학생들에 대한 주기적인 평가를 통해 추후 시점마다 심리적 또는 교육적 지지자원을 분배 투입하는 것이 필요하다.
