About

This study was conducted to determine the effectiveness of the e-learning application developed for chest tube care in nursing students. Within the scope of this study, the e-learning application developed for chest tube care in nursing students and the effectiveness of this e-learning application were evaluated.

Full description

At the beginning of the study, 'Student Information Form', 'Clinical Reasoning Readiness Scale for Nursing Students', 'Self-Managed Learning Scale' and 'Chest Tube Care Management Knowledge Test' were applied to the participants. Then, the students were divided into two groups, 54 in the experimental group and 54 in the control group, and they were provided to enter the 'Chest Tube Care Management E-Learning Application'. The students in the groups were then asked to complete the module containing activities such as videos, short tests, puzzles in the content of the e-learning application opened to them at different times. When the students in the groups completed the module, 'Clinical Reasoning Readiness Scale for Nursing Students', 'Self-Managed Learning Scale' and 'Chest Tube Care Management Knowledge Test' were applied. Participation in this study was voluntary and participants could leave the study at any stage of the study if they wished. The confidentiality of the participant's data was protected and used only for this study.

Hypothesis 1:

H0: There is no significant difference between the chest tube care management knowledge scores of the students using the chest tube care management e-learning application and the control group students.

H1: There is a significant difference between the chest tube care management knowledge scores of the students using the chest tube care management e-learning application and the control group students.

Hypothesis 2:

H0: There is no significant difference between chest tube care management clinical reasoning readiness scale scores of students using chest tube care management e-learning application and control group students.

H1: There is a significant difference between the clinical reasoning readiness scale scores of the students using the chest tube care management e-learning application and the control group students.

Hypothesis 3:

H0: There is no significant difference between the chest tube care management self-directed learning skill levels of the students using the chest tube care management e-learning application and the control group students.

H1: There is a significant difference between the chest tube care management self-directed learning skill levels of the students using the chest tube care management e-learning application and the control group students.
