CHAPTER I
The Problem and Its Background
Introduction:
Virtual Laboratory was intended to assess the merits of traditional versus virtual
classroom environment on student test performance and students affect towards the
experiences.
In attempt to explain the experience this findings it is very important to know that
the virtual students seemed more frustrated but not entirely from the technology rather it
seemed from the inability to ask question from the professors in the face to face
environment.
The researchers believe this laid paradoxically to student compensation evidence
by more involvement between and among peers who formulated study groups to pick up
of not having a real classroom that this collaborative learning literature.
The virtual laboratory creates and evaluate rich interactive learning environment
that are usable in classroom practice and that push forwards the envelope of learning
technlogies including three dimensional visualization model manipulation, multi sensory
feedback and design based on learning this distal creatures will be presented so as to
allow both interactive viewing and simulated physical and chemical manipulation and
will encourage students to go beyond traditional learning methods such as dissection and
text based factual learning also it is important that faculty contemplating the use of the
visual format. Pay attention to the issue of real time collaboration whether carried from
within the traditional classroon or in the context of virtual space. It is the key to validate
that it should be controlled in further research on the subject of virtual teaching.
Statement of the Problem :
This study aimed to determine ““The Effects of Virtual Laboratory on the
Competency Level of Third Year Nursing Students taking up RLE NCM 101 at Our Lady
of Fatima University”.
Specifically it sought the answers to the ff questions:
1. What is the demographic profile of the respondents in terms of the ff?
-Age
-Gender
-Civil Status
2. What is the demographic profile of the respondents in terms of the ff?a. Age c. Civil Statusb. Gender3. Do the participants score higher on the test when presented with virtual lab.4. What are the perception of the respondents regarding the use of virtual laboratory?5. Does the students able to enhance their cognitive skills and performance through practicing on the said laboratory?6. Does the newly ntroduced materials put a greater impact on the knowledge of the students?7. Up to what extent, does the students able to achieve their competency level?8. Do the students able to seek understanding of learning characteristics and Effects on learning outcomes in virtual environment laboratory?9. How effective does virtual laboratory did on the performane of the third year nursing students taking up RLE NCM 101.
Hypothesis:
Alternative Hypothesis:
There is a significant difference on the competency level between those
who have done with virtual laboratory and for those who are not yet done
in selective third year nursing students.
Null Hypothesis :
There is no significant difference on the competency level between those
who have done with virtual laboratory and for those who are not yet done
in selective third year nursing students.
Significance of the Study :
The purpose of the study is to provide an accurate data on the effects of virtual
laboratory on the competency level of selected nursing students. It was hypothesized
crucial to test performance. Virtual laboratory in reality gives up in presence and
immersion it gains back inaccessibility such technology is available in many universities
and colleges. The findinds of virtual reality as a learning tool is gaining support and
research into improving technology for learning application is widespread. However,
research into making best of virtual technology to help the widespread speculum of the
learners by investigating individual differences in clinical area. This study seeks to add to
understanding of learners characteristics on competency level and learning outcome in
virtual environment laboratory.
The Selected Third Year Nursing Students. -They will be able to have enough
knowledge about the existence of the newly introduced technology to the university. It
helps them in enhancing their cognitive skills and performance through practicing inside
laboratory and it lessen the risk of committing mistakes to their parents. This would take
place on the ground floor of San Rafael Hall and in the campus. We are doing this
research study because we would like to know the vrtual laboratory does enhance the
cognirive skills of level III nursing studentsif using the virtual laboratory by nursing
students does give the benefits of the patients. If performing procedure in the interactive
clinical laboratory does give benefits to the level III nursing students.
For Future Researcher. -They may have further reference to their further studies with
the same issue. It would help them answer some problems. They might encounter during
thesis writing and they could also formulate other problems out of this research that needs
to be answered.
For the Faculty of OLFU. -They will help clinical instructors in evaluating their
learning capabilities of the students effectively with the help of the computer driven
mannequins the faculty and accurate monitor the procedures that are being performed by
the students inside the laboratory.
Scope and Limitation. – The researcher focuses from the study on the effects of Virtual
Laboratory on the competency level of selected third year nursing students of Our Lady
of Fatima Quezon City. This study will be conducted for one semester of school year
2007-2008 which is good for one semester.

REVIEW RELATED LITERATURE AND STUDIES
This chapter consist of related literature of the study which compose of foreign
and local literature, as well as foreign and local studies. It also deals with the Theoretical/
Conceptual Framework. Research Paradigm and definitions of technical terms that will
be mentioned in this chapter.
Local Study
According to the Fatima News Team (Thursday, August 16,2007) Virtual
Laboratory is the most extensive clinical simulation Laboratory in the country today,
features state of the art computer-model-driven-full sized human patient. Simulations
(HPS) that allow Fatima’s nursing students to experiences true to life clinical scenarios
that greatly augment their clinical treining. Will the nurse call system, students will learn
to respond to patient calls within two minutes of delivery.
Local Literature
According to Manila Times (Sunday, March 25, 2008) FEU Institute of Nursing
transforms Philippine nursing education via its modern Virtual Laboratory. Reflecting the
rapid changes and developments in medical science and technology, Far Eastern
University’s Institute of Nursing to takes nursing education to the next level, providing its
students with the advantage of world class educations right here in the Philippines
through its traditional of excellence.
Foreign literature
Roy’s Adaptation Model. Sister Callista Roys’s adaptation model,originating in
1970, is widely used by nurse educators, researcher and practitioners. Roy focuses on
individul as a biopsychosocial adaptive system. Both the individual and the environment
are sources of stimuli that require modification to promote modification to promote
adaptation. An ongoing purposive response. Adaptive responses contribute health, the
process of being and becoming integrated; in effective and maladative responses do not.
Roy’s adaptive system consist of two interrelated subsystem. The primary subsystem is a
functional or internal control process that consists of regulator and cognator. The
regulator process input automatically through neural-chemical-endocrine channels. The
cognator processing warning, judgement and emotion. Ron views the regulator and
cognator as methods of coping. The secondary subsystem is an effectors system that
manifest cognator and regulatory activity. It consist of four adaptive modes;the
physiologic mode involves the body’s basic physiologic needs and ways of adapting in
regard to fluid and electrolytes,activity and rest circulation and oxygen. The self concept
mode includes two components. The physical and personal self. The role function mode
is determined by the need for social integrity and to the performance of duties based on
the given positions within the society. The inter dependence mode involves one’s
relations eith significant others and support systems that provide help affection and
attention.
According to Sister Callista Roy’s Adaptation theory it is the process and
outcomes wereby thinking and feelings of a person uses conscious awareness and choice
to create human and environment integration. In connection with the evaluation of
cognitive skills of the nursing students in relation to using the virtual laboratory, the
computerized mannequins serves as the stimulus to the students in terms of enhancing
their skills. Roy emphasized the bio psychosocial adaptive system, in which the stimuli
serve as the input and throughout as the control process and the output as an adaptive
response. Inside the laboratory as a preparetion in the actual repitition of practices and by
adjusting to the given environment without doing future harm. As stated by Callista Roy
in her four models of adaptive system, self concept modes which include the physical-self
and personal self in adapting to its environment, through these modes as student that has
been experienced to the use of the virtual laboratory and adapt to the different adaptive
modes. Individuals respond to this kind of stimulus which facilitates a person to adapt to
its environment. The output or the adaptive response of this virtual laboratory promotes
heat because it can reduce the cases of negligence and malpractices that a nursing student
can commit in the hospitals. As emphasized by Roy, each person’s adaptation level is
unique and constantly changing. And as what she said she had stated students can
progress and well developed their cognitive skills is through this stimulus. And the virtual
laboratory is one that serves as a training ground that shapes the competitiveness,
competence, consistency and cognitive skills of nursing students by adapting those kind
of responses.and innovative spirit, FEU aims to bring the institute of nursing to the
forefront of nursing education in the Philippines, preparing its students to take on the
demands of a global tomorrow. Step into the FEU institute of nursings new state of the
art virtual laboratory which opened its doors in December 2006. The uniquely designed
simulated laboratory proudly carries the “Gold Standard”, the yardstick by which all
other nursing skills laboratories are measured. The hospital set up closely approximates
the standards of the Joint Commission. The leading health care accrediting body in the
USA and other international hospital and infection standards in terms of bed-to-sink
ratios, hospital door widths, functionality and work and point flow. In addition,
AUSTCO, the leader in quality nurse call systems , has partnered with FEU to house the
only advanced, cutting edge nurse call system has partnered with FEU to house the only
advanced, cutting edge nurse call syste in the Philippines. With the nurse all system,
students will learn to respond to patient calls within two minutes of the call enhancing the
student’s customer service and interpersonal or relatonal skills. Dean of FEU_IN
Anabelle Borromeo proudly announced “The Virtual Laboratory provides a learning
platform that allows our students to practice real life situations , training them to be
nurses of tomorrow.” Using third-operation computer-based simulations instead of the
traditional mannequins, the virtual laboratory at FEU_IN provides its realistic conditions
through the use of advance technology. Meet HAL, the human patient simulation who is
capable of taking breaths, talking having his pulses palpated and his blood pressure
obtained. The instructor controls HAL through a wireless computer, as such, HAL can be
programmed to experience realistic medical, which students can learn from. Besides
HAL, the FEU virtual laboratory likewise boasts or noelle, the maternal interactive
birthing model with which nursing are able to assess pregnancies and births. FEU-IN’s
virtual laboratory aims the advantage nursing education in the Philippines by providing
its students with cutting edge training and equipment, creating the nurses of tomorrow.
On the top of the high-tech human patient simulators, the laboratory also boasts of an IV
insertion simulator. The device presents varying é of difficulty and complications in the
IV theraphy procedure, simulating skin stretching, blood flashback, threading off of the
catheter and even provides the realistic pop of venipuncture, allowing the user to
experience the feel of realistic IV procedures. The Virtual Laboratory will also be
equipped with video conferencing terminals to capture master lectures and demontrations
of nursing procedures. Captured video will be steamed live other classrooms or computer
laboratories where viewers are able to call the lecture and ask questions. In some cases ,
the material will be saved for later viewing either in group settings at classrooms or
laboratories, or for download by students to their own portable devices. Later, additional
learning hospitals or schools so that students can, for example, follow an actual operation
taking place at a remote operating room via the video conferncing technology. According
to Dean Borromeo, a nurse today, to be globally competitive, must acquire basic skills in
three areas while still in nursing school; these are technical, relational and critical
thinking skills. The virtual laboratory is an opportunity to fast track the acquisition.
Research on students show that those who have undergone stimulator classes have
exhibited improved preparedness and self-efficacy. The virtual laboratory is FEU
contribution to the development of nursing education in the PHILIPPINES by providing
quality education and advance training FEU creates globally competitive nurses who are
well-equiped for the demands of the tomorrow. For what sets these graduates apart from
the rest is that day are equipped with an in-depth nursing foundation allowing them is
function in any setting.” Dean Borromeo proudly commented by supporting the
advancement of quality nursing education and state of the art equipment, FEU aims to be
in the forefront of nursing education in the Philippines.
Foreign Study
Virtual Reality in the schools is a peer reviewed publication of the Virtual
Laboratory and Education Laboratory (VREL), published by East Carolina University.
Virtual Review in her schools adresses issues of incorporating virtual reality into the
education system. “Virtual Reality” is the computer generated simulation of a real or an
imagined environment. It can be graphics based (e.g., a walk through the building) or text
based (e.g. a description of activity where participants can interact with one another.
Virtual Reality in the schools is published by the Virtual Reality and Education
Laboratory (VREL) in the College of Education at East Carolina University. The journal
begins as a quarterly, issued in June, Sept., Dec. and march Volumes 1 & 2 were
distributed in print format initially. World wide web provides the fastest dissemination of
information which is necessary in the field of Virtual Reality due to the subjects rapidly
changing technology . The Virtual Reality and Education Laboratory at East Carolina
University is dedicated to finding ways to study the implications of Virtual Reality and
Education Lab. at East Carolina in 1992. The current co-directors are Dr. Pantelids & Mr.
David Vinciguerra.
According to FEU (2007) the Primus Interpares of first among equals in the
Philippines to have a real nursing Virtual Laboratory uniquely designed as a stimulated
hospital proudly carries “Gold Standard” the yardstick by which all other nursing skills
are measured. The hospital set-up closely approximates the standards of the Joint
Commission, the leading health care accrediting body in the USA and other international
hospitals and infection standard in terms of bed-to-sink ratios, hospital door widths ,
functionally and work and patient flow. In addition, AUSTCO, the leader in quality nurse
call system in the Philippines. With the nurse call system, students will learn to respond
to patient calls within two minute of the call enhancing the students customer service and
interpersonal relation skills.
Theoretical Framework
The theory of repetition is a meaningful and important materials and can enhance
the retention of the ideas in the mind of the nursing students. Through actual repetition of
different procedures in nursing skills, students can master and perform well if they are
alreadyon the field with their respective patients. By regularly performing the different
nursing procedures and responsive dummies inside the virtual laboratories, they will have
recognition on whatever skills that they will need in every specific case, situations and
conditions of their patients.
The tension and nervousness of newly expose student nurses will be lessened
because of cognitive skills that they have learned from manlike and responsive
mannequins. They are already prepared in facing cases every time that they would have
their duties inside the hospital because of the retention of conitive skills in their mind.
Repetition of differen procedures by the student nurses can enhance the relation of
skills on their mind and makes them more competent enough in doing their duties. The
actual repetition of a student nurse using the equipment inside the Virtual Laboratory can
induce retention in the mind. Through this cycle of procedures in the laboratory it can
help the studets in enhancing their knowledge and skills by using it frequently.
