Abstract—The purposes of this study were to 1) develop the Massive Open Online Course (MOOC) in nursing care for patients with myocardial infarction, 2) examine the learning achievement after learning with the MOOC, and 3) To examine satisfaction towards the MOOC in nursing care for patients with myocardial infarction. The sample consisted of 453 learners who enrolled in nursing care for patients with myocardial infarction through the PSUMOOC system. The MOOC was developed considering components to facilitate learning, including video, learning activities, and self-tests. The instruments used in this study were 1) Achievement Test and 2) Satisfaction Towards MOOC Questionnaire developed by the researchers. The validity and reliability of the instrument were assessed. The differences in learners’ scores before and after studying the MOOC, and satisfaction towards the MOOC were examined. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and paired t-tests. The findings revealed that there was a statistically significantly higher mean score of the learners’ scores at the posttest than at the pretest (p < 0.01), indicating higher learning achievement. The learners were very satisfied towards the MOOC in the dimensions of up-to-date content, learning activities, quality of pictures and graphics, and colors used in media of the course.
