Outline of Final Research Achievements

We made two groups, each consisted of one medical, nursing, and pharmacy student, and also one type II diabetic patient. They communicated with one another on iPED. Students supported their patients’ recuperation through iPED communication for a year. After that, we had semi-structured interview to students, and analyzed their transcript qualitatively.
Following four effects were revealed. First, Acquisition of developmental guide; students broadened their view to studying. Second, Ricochet effect; nursing students’ emic remark to patients evocated disease-only viewpoint of medical and pharmacy students. Third, Mirror effect; because of communication style’s propagation to students in other faculties, they re-confirmed own major role reflectively. Last, Removing psychological barrier; students perceived that there was less of a psychological barrier using the iPED compared to previous experiences.
