Brief Summary
This study is designed as a randomized controlled trial (RCT) with a pretest-posttest-follow-up design. It aims to compare the effectiveness of gamified teaching methods (Gimkit and escape room) with traditional theoretical education in improving nursing students' Human Papillomavirus (HPV)-related knowledge and literacy.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (2)
HPV Knowledge Level
Human Papillomavirus (HPV) Knowledge Scale. Scores range from 0 to 33; higher scores indicate greater knowledge.
Baseline (Day 0, 17.04.2026), immediately after theoretical education (Day 0), immediately after the intervention (Day 7, 24.04.2026), and follow-up (Day 28, 15.05.2026)
HPV Literacy Level
Human Papillomavirus (HPV) Literacy Scale. Scores range from 24 to 120; higher scores indicate higher literacy.
Baseline (Day 0, 17.04.2026), immediately after theoretical education (Day 0), immediately after the intervention (Day 7, 24.04.2026), and follow-up (Day 28, 15.05.2026)
Secondary Outcomes (1)
Gamified Learning Experience
Day 7 (24.04.2026)
Study Arms (3)
Gimkit Group
EXPERIMENTALParticipants will receive standardized theoretical education on Human Papillomavirus (HPV), followed by a Gimkit-based digital quiz game consisting of multiple-choice and true/false questions.
Escape Room Group
EXPERIMENTALParticipants will receive standardized theoretical education on Human Papillomavirus (HPV), followed by participation in structured escape room-based learning activities consisting of crossword puzzles, word search tasks, and matching exercises designed to reinforce HPV-related knowledge through collaborative problem-solving.
Control Group
NO INTERVENTIONParticipants will receive standardized theoretical education on Human Papillomavirus (HPV) and will not participate in any gamified learning activities.
