Factors Influencing Learning Satisfaction of Migrant Workers in Korea with E-learning-Based Occupational Safety and Health Education

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

Background: E-learning-based programs have recently been introduced to the occupational safety and health (OSH) education for migrant workers in Korea. The purpose of this study was to investigate how the factors related to migrant workers’ backgrounds and the instructional design affect the migrant workers’ satisfaction with e-learning-based OSH education.

Methods: The data were collected from the surveys of 300 migrant workers who had participated in an OSH education program. Independent sample t test and one-way analysis of variance were conducted to examine differences in the degree of learning satisfaction using background variables. In addition, correlation analysis and multiple regression analysis were conducted to examine relationships between the instructional design variables and the degree of learning satisfaction.

Results: There was no significant difference in the degree of learning satisfaction by gender, age, level of education, number of employees, or type of occupation, except for nationality. Among the instructional design variables, “learning content” (b ¼ 0.344, p < 0.001) affected the degree of learning satisfaction most significantly, followed by “motivation to learn” (b ¼ 0.293, p < 0.001), “interactions with learners and instructors” (b ¼ 0.149, p < 0.01), and “previous experience related to e-learning” (b ¼ 0.095, p < 0.05). “Learning environment” had no significant influence on the degree of learning satisfaction.

Conclusion: E-learning-based OSH education for migrant workers may be an effective way to increase their safety knowledge and behavior if the accuracy, credibility, and novelty of learning content; strategies to promote learners’ motivation to learn; and interactions with learners and instructors are systematically applied during the development and implementation of e-learning programs.
