We delved into the antecedents and consequences of college students' satisfaction with online learning. We proposed the antecedents would be interactions, teaching presence, self-management of learning, and academic self-efficacy, and that the consequence would be intention to continue to use online learning. Participants were 236 college students in South Korea who completed an online survey. Our findings suggest that students' satisfaction with online learning was positively related to the interactions between students and instructor, teaching presence, self-management of learning, and academic self-efficacy. We also found that student satisfaction with online learning positively predicted their intention to continue to use online learning. Thus, our findings in this study provide educators with ways to increase student satisfaction, and add to knowledge about the relationship between students' satisfaction and their intention to take online courses.

Abstract Background: Legal substances use is prevalent in Ethiopia. Substance use can have several health problems that are potentially harmful to educational performance, social issues, psychological and physical wellbeing. This study aimed to know the prevalence of lifetime and last month’s substance use and its associated factors among technical and vocational education and training College students in Ataye town. Methods: An institution-based cross-sectional study was conducted from 1 March to last May 2019. Participants were selected using a simple random sampling technique. Data collected by using a structured and pretested interviewer-administered questionnaire. Data collected by five trained diploma nurses with close supervision. Odds ratio with their 95% confidence interval, and p-value less than 0.05 used to declare the statistical significance of associated factors. Results: Four hundred eighty-three individuals participated in the study, which was a response rate of 94%. The prevalence of lifetime legal substance use was 32.5% (95% CI: 28.2, 36.5). The prevalence of last month's legal substances use was 21.9% (95% CI= 18.2, 25.5). Among lifetime legal substance users, the majority (25.5%) chewed khat. The others, (19.5%) drunk alcohol, and, 15.3% smoked cigarettes in a lifetime. Lifetime cannabis and cocaine users were 2.5%, and 7.2% respectively. Among last month's legal substance users, (21.9%) chewed khat followed by alcohol drinking (16.6%), and cigarette smoking (15.3%). In the last month, 1.2% and 3.3% of students used cannabis and cocaine respectively. Multivariate logistic regression showed that being male, having a divorced family, living greater than twenty years in the town, having substance user family members, having intimate friend substance users, and easy availability of substances were independent predictors of lifetime legal substances use. Conclusions: The prevalence of last month and lifetime legal substance use at Ataye Technical and Vocational Education and Training ( TVET ) college students were analogous with most studies done in Ethiopia. It is advisable if the college administrators work together with town administrators to mitigate the problem including closing substance use houses around the school. Overall, Substance use among adolescents should get further emphasis to lower the prevalence.

Introduction: Corona Virus Disease (Covid-19) was declared as a pandemic by the World Health Organization (WHO) resulting in changes in existing patterns of life. This impact also affects the world of education, including nursing vocational education. Nursing vocational education must be able to design online methods for the clinical competency with existing facilities and infrastructure. The online clinical method can describe the achievements achievable in clinical facilities so as to build students’ satisfaction and confidence.Methods: This research used quasi-experimental pre-posttest without control group method by providing clinical learning thinking like a nurse simulation. The research sample consists of 110 diploma students with purposive sampling method. Simulation focuses on clinical judgment, communication skills, and skill simulations by adopting clinical practice in hospitals. Assessment is measured using Simulation Design Scale (SDS) and Student Satisfaction and Self-Confidence in Learning Scale (SCLS). Pair t test with level of significance 0.05 is used to process data.Results: It is found that there is an increase in students’ satisfaction and confidence using the clinical simulation method of “thinking like a nurse” having an average 40.69%. Meanwhile, online clinical learning methods has an average increase of 114%. There is an effect of thinking like a nurse simulation method on students’ satisfaction and self-confidence (p < 0.05).Conclusion: This research is recommended to add to the reference for online nursing clinical learning methods during Covid-19. Determining the   ratio between students and lecturers in online clinic learning can be considered for further research.
