Brief Summary

ABSTRACT Aim: This study aimed to evaluate the effect of the flipped classroom model on students' academic achievement and learning motivation. Methods: This randomized controlled study was conducted between October 13 and October 31, 2025, with midwifery students at a state university in the Central Black Sea Region of Türkiye. A total of 95 students participated in the study and were assigned to experimental (n=51) and control (n=44) groups using stratified random sampling. Pregnancy examination was taught using the flipped classroom model in the experimental group, while the traditional teaching method was used in the control group. Data were collected using the Sociodemographic Data Form, Pregnancy Examination Knowledge Test, Pregnancy Examination Skills Form, and the Student Motivation Scale in Higher Education.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• knowledge and skills

  The experimental group accessed materials via the Distance Education Application and Research Center portal on October 16, 2025, and completed a Q\&A session, online exam, and a 22-item Pregnancy Examination Knowledge Test on October 22, 2025. On October 23, 2025, their practical skills were assessed on a mannequin using the Pregnancy Examination Skills Form. The control group received a four-hour traditional lecture on October 13, 2025, followed by a practical demonstration. Knowledge was assessed using the same test, and skills were evaluated on October 16, 2025, using the Pregnancy Examination Skills Form. The primary outcomes were students' knowledge and skills. Knowledge test scores ranged from 0 to 22 (observed: 16-22), with higher scores indicating greater knowledge. The skill form (100 steps) was scored as 0-200 ("Not Completed"=0, "Partially Completed"=1, "Completed"=2), with higher scores indicating better performance.
