Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

  • Sociodemographic Characteristics Form

    data were collected including age, gender, the status of choosing the nursing department, whether they previously received distance learning, and their status of gaining professional knowledge through distance learning.

    one week

  • Academic Success Assessment (Quiz)

    It is a 20-question quiz created by the researcher to measure the success of the students in the Nursing Process course. The duration of this exam is 20 minutes and each question is worth 5 points. This was conducted as an online exam in the University's teaching management system.

    8th week

  • Instructional Materials Motivation Survey (IMMS)

    Instructional Materials Motivation Survey was prepared by J. M. Keller (2009) as a motivation model for attention, relevance, confidence, and satisfaction. IMMS identifies changes in students' motivation when faced with instructional materials based on key components. As a result of the analyzes, the survey was adapted to Turkish with two factors and 24 items. The reliability (Cronbach's Alpha) internal consistency coefficient of the survey was found to be 0.83 for the total survey, and 0.79 and 0.69 for the sub-factors, respectively. The sub-dimensions of the scale are divided into attention-relevance and confidence-satisfaction. The scale is in the type of self-report. The survey is a 5-point Likert type (1 = Totally disagree, 5 = Totally agree). The lowest score that can be obtained from the scale is 24, and the highest score is 120. The higher the total score, the stronger the motivation to learn.
