Adult learners living in remote areas require non-traditional access to higher education. Currently, throughout the higher education system, and especially in distance education, changes are occurring in structural delivery models. Because technology has become an integral part of modern life and accessibility of computers has grown rapidly, their use in the higher education system has increased dramatically.

520 $a Adult learners living in remote areas require non-traditional access to higher education. Currently, throughout the higher education system, and especially in distance education, changes are occurring in structural delivery models. Because technology has become an integral part of modern life and accessibility of computers has grown rapidly, their use in the higher education system has increased dramatically.
520 $a The study describes research carried out at St. Francis Xavier University to examine the effectiveness of interactive CD-ROM technology in a distance education program for working nurses from communities across Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island. The well-established program (part-time Bachelor of Science in Nursing) was currently available in a print-based correspondence format. The study sought to determine if the new CD-ROM technology could improve the existing method of delivery, in terms of increasing cognitive achievement, attitude toward learning, and learners' satisfaction.
520 $a The thesis discusses the implementation and evaluation of the study. Data were collected through audiotaped group dialogues, pre and post-tests, and questionnaire responses. The findings revealed that both print-based and CD-ROM treatments produced successful course experiences for the participants. Students were empowered by the process of learning at a distance, particularly the CD-ROM group who in addition to learning about nursing also mastered computer technology at the same time. The study concludes with several recommendations for nurse educators for improving access, course development, and delivery of distance nursing courses in the future.
