Background: In Japan, it is extremely difficult to acquire the minimum required knowledge of infectious diseases in such a situation. This study examines the effects of this curriculum on student knowledge. Methods: Beginning in the middle of the first year of nursing school, this curriculum allows students who have not studied infectious diseases until high school to easily acquire this knowledge based on Gagne's Nine Events of Instruction. Results: A comparison of student performance on the mid-term exam, in which lessons were conducted based on Gagne's Nine Events of Instruction, and the final exam, in which lessons were not conducted based on these event results suggested that while the lectures were not exactly the same, the curriculum enabled students without basic academic knowledge about infectious diseases to effectively acquire this knowledge. Conclusion: Following such a curriculum may enable nurses to pursue education in other complicated subject areas, such as genetics.
