Brief Summary

This randomized controlled study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of the Pecha Kucha-supported microteaching method in nursing process education among first-year nursing students. Participants will be randomly assigned to either an intervention group receiving Pecha Kucha-supported microteaching or a control group receiving traditional instruction. The effects of the intervention on nursing process competencies and learning motivation will be evaluated.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• Quality of Nursing Diagnoses, Interventions and Outcomes

  The quality of nursing care plans will be evaluated using the Quality of Nursing Diagnoses, Interventions and Outcomes (Q-DIO) instrument. The Q-DIO is a 29-item instrument designed to assess the quality of nursing documentation, including nursing diagnoses, nursing interventions, and nursing-sensitive patient outcomes. The instrument consists of four domains: Nursing Diagnoses as Process, Nursing Diagnoses as Outcomes, Nursing Interventions, and Nursing-Sensitive Patient Outcomes. Higher scores indicate higher quality and more comprehensive documentation of nursing diagnoses, interventions, and patient outcomes in nursing care plans.

  After completion of the educational intervention (approximately 4 weeks after baseline) and at the end of the clinical practice period (approximately 12 weeks after baseline).

Secondary Outcomes (2)

• Nursing Process Knowledge Level Assessment Form

  At baseline and at the end of the clinical practice period (approximately 12 weeks after baseline).

• Instructional Materials Motivation Survey

  At the end of the clinical practice period (approximately 12 weeks after baseline).

Study Arms (2)

Experimental Group

EXPERIMENTAL

Nursing students who received a brief refresher lecture on the nursing process and participated in Pecha Kucha-supported microteaching activities based on case scenarios. Students subsequently prepared individual nursing care plans during clinical practice.

Behavioral: Pecha Kucha-Supported Microteaching

Control Group

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Nursing students who received a brief refresher lecture on the nursing process and prepared group nursing care plans based on case scenarios. Students subsequently prepared individual nursing care plans during clinical practice.

Behavioral: Traditional Teaching

Interventions

Pecha Kucha-Supported Microteaching BEHAVIORAL

Nursing students first received a brief refresher lecture on the nursing process. The experimental group, consisting of 50 students, was then divided into five groups of 10 students each. Each group was assigned a case scenario and a nursing diagnosis. Students were asked to prepare a presentation using the Pecha Kucha-supported microteaching method based on the assigned case and nursing diagnosis. One student from each group delivered the presentation on behalf of the group. Feedback sessions were conducted following the presentations. Subsequently, students prepared individual nursing care plans for patients cared for during clinical practice.

Experimental Group

Traditional Teaching BEHAVIORAL

Nursing students first received a brief refresher lecture on the nursing process. The control group, consisting of 50 students, was then divided into five groups of 10 students each. Each group was assigned a case scenario and a nursing diagnosis. Students were asked to collaboratively prepare a nursing care plan based on the assigned case and nursing diagnosis. Following this activity, students prepared individual nursing care plans for patients cared for during clinical practice.
