So the aim of this study was to Compare the effect of two educational methods, E-learning [multimedia] and painted booklet on Primipar Women's Knowledge about neonatal care. This was a quasi-experimental study based on pre- and post- tests that were carried out on 100 primipar women in Isfahan during the years 2012-2013. Participants were divided into two groups of e-learning or painted booklet learning, randomly. Participants' knowledge scores were collected via a researcher-made questionnaire. SPSS version 11.5 was used to conduct statistical tests such as independent t-test and paired t-test for analyzing the data. The significance level was considered less than 0.05. Before training, the mean score of knowledge of the e-learning education group was 5.4 +/- 1.2 and 5.5 +/- 1.2 for the painted booklet group; the difference between mean scores was not significant. At the end of the study, this score was 9.54 +/- 1.1 for the e-learning group and 6.5 +/- 1.2 for the painted booklet group and the difference was statistically significant [P< 0.01]. Also increase in the rate of knowledge in the e-learning group and the painted booklet group was 56% and 30%, respectively. This study showed that passing the e-learning training course could better improve knowledge of mothers about neonatal care than the painted booklet.
