Brief Summary

Depending on the education system, the increasing number of students, inadequate practice/skill laboratories, a small number of lecturers and students with limited time in the clinic have a negative impact on obtaining appropriate clinical experience. The virtual learning environment experience will prepare the student for the clinic in the most realistic way and will reduce the risk of errors in clinical care and treatment. In light of this information, presenting the learning environment of the future to the student will prepare the student both in the clinical practice area and in the professional environment as self-confident and highly equipped The study was planned with a mixed method consisting of single-blind randomized controlled experiment and focus group interview methods. The research was planned to be carried out during the pediatric nursing course period between 2023-2024 Fall Semester October-December. Participants will be students taking a pediatric nursing course. Scales and Forms to be used in the Study; Informed Consent and Demographic Data Collection Form, Expert Opinion Form, Proficiency Scale for Nursing Students, Augmented Reality Applications Attitude Scale, Pre and Post Test, Student Case Form, • Focus Group Interview Form and Distance Education Satisfaction Scale of university life. The universe of the research consists of all students who take and continue the 2023 - 2024 fall term child health and diseases nursing course (N: 190). It will try to reach the universe where the sample selection of the research will not be made. To measure the learning efficiency of pediatric nursing students in infant orogastric tube care application in two different skill laboratories, considering the feeding pattern from Gordon's Functional Health patterns. (University skills lab and metaverse-based clinical skills lab) As a result, the learning levels of the students in the metaverse-based clinical skills laboratory environment will be higher than in the skills laboratory. It will also increase the student's self-confidence in the field of pediatric nursing practice.

Study Arms (2)

control grup (skill lab.)

NO INTERVENTION

After the control group was determined from the students attending the child health and diseases nursing course in the 2023 -2024 fall semester. * The control group will be informed and approved. * The control group will be pre-tested * The control group will go to the skill laboratory.

experimental group (metaverse skill lab.)

EXPERIMENTAL

After the experimental group was determined from the students attending the pediatric health and diseases nursing course in the fall semester of 2023-2024, respectively. * Pre-test will be applied to the experimental group. * Informed consent and demographic data collection form will be obtained from the experimental group. * The experimental group will be informed about the metaverse and approval will be obtained. * Premature infant nutrition training will be given to the experimental group in a metaverse-based skill laboratory environment. * The experimental group will enter the metaverse skill laboratory environment one by one, select their avatar and switch to the patient room in the environment, * The experimental group will evaluate the feeding pattern of the premature baby on the scenario given first in the metaverse-based skills laboratory.

Interventions

control grup (skills lab.) and experimental group (mateverse skill lab.) OTHER

The universe of the study consists of students (N: 190) who took a pediatric nursing course in the 3rd year of the Teaching Department at Istanbul Medipol University. The sample of the study will consist of the students who took the 3rd year child health and diseases nursing course in the nursing department, accepted the study, and met the study criteria. It will try to reach the universe where the sample selection of the research will not be made. With the simple randomization method, students will be assigned to the experimental and control groups. Even the last digit of the student number will be randomized to the experimental group and odd ones will be randomized to the control group
