Study Arms (3)

Experimental High Reality simulator

EXPERIMENTAL

The steps of the process including normal labor skills will be done by each student in the d1= High Reality simulator (full-size, computer-based, time-adjusted, mother's statements about pain, performed with a female robotic simulator, Noelle S575 Mother and Newborn simulator)will be done to each student in the group respectively.

Behavioral: Experimental High Reality Simulator

Experimental Medium Reality Simulator

EXPERIMENTAL

The steps of the process including normal labor skills will be done by each student in the d2= Medium Reality simulator (full-size, fetal heart sounds can be listened to, time-adjusted with a simple hand monitor, birth process performed with an automatic birth system, SB32878U full-size birth model) will be done to each student in the group respectively.

Behavioral: Experimental Medium Reality Simulator

Experimental Simulated Woman

EXPERIMENTAL

The process steps including normal labour skills will be shown on d3= simulated woman (manual delivery of the baby, Gaumard S500 Half-Length Birth Simulator on which the midwifery student will apply the labour scenario) will be done to each student in the group respectively.

Behavioral: Experimental Simulated Woman

Interventions

Experimental High Reality Simulator BEHAVIORAL

The process steps including normal labour skills will be shown on d1= High Reality simulator (full-size, computer-based, time-setting, expressions of pain from the mother, performed with a female robotic simulator, Noelle S575 Mother and Newborn simulator), d2= Medium Reality simulator (full-size, fetal heart sounds can be listened, SB32878U full-length birth model, timed with a simple hand-held monitor, birth process is performed with an automatic birth system) and d3= simulated woman (manual delivery of the baby, Gaumard S500 Half-Length Birth Simulator on which the midwifery student will apply the labour scenario) will be done to each student in the group respectively.

Experimental High Reality simulator

Experimental Medium Reality Simulator BEHAVIORAL

The process steps including normal labour skills will be shown on d2= Medium Reality simulator (full-size, fetal heart sounds can be listened, SB32878U full-length birth model, timed with a simple hand-held monitor, birth process is performed with an automatic birth system) will be done to each student in the group respectively.

Experimental Medium Reality Simulator

Experimental Simulated Woman BEHAVIORAL

Then, the process steps including normal labour skills will be shown d3= simulated woman (manual delivery of the baby, Gaumard S500 Half-Length Birth Simulator on which the midwifery student will apply the scenario of labour by the midwifery student) will be done to each student in the group respectively.
