Brief Summary

Supporting adolescents with education about the menstruation process is important in terms of managing the process physically and mentally healthy and gaining lifelong positive health behaviors. Various narrative techniques including visuals, slides and animations are utilized in menstruation education for adolescents. Within the scope of these narrative techniques, technological tools are frequently used for learning purposes in adolescence. In technology-supported education, training that includes visual materials such as animations and multimedia software is very important. Presentations supported by various visuals and texts can be effective in trainings on mentoring. Presentations can appeal to students' visual senses and attract their attention. Animation is one of the technology-based applications that are frequently used in the education of adolescents and support education. The presentation can be animated or non-animated.
