The Effect of Digital Mind Map and Midwifery Students
Sponsor: Ayla Ergin
Summary
This study was conducted to determine the effect of the digital mind map technique on the learning of midwifery students. The research will be carried out with Kocaeli University Midwifery 2nd year students. A meeting was held with students regarding extracurricular studies between 12 February and 16 February 2024, which is the beginning of the 2023-2024 academic year academic calendar of Kocaeli University. The research will be completed with 86 students in the mind map method group (n = 43) and the classical method (n = 43) group. Data will be collected through the participant information form, knowledge assessment survey on family planning, and satisfaction assessment survey of the narrative regarding the digital mind map. Three topics determined regarding family planning methods (oral contraceptives, condoms and intrauterine devices) were prepared by the researcher using the digital mind map technique. The participant information form and the knowledge evaluation survey on family planning were administered as a pre-test to the students who accepted the research at the first meeting. The mind map technique was first explained to the mind map method group. The topics were explained to the students in the mind map method group by the researcher and his advisor using the mind map technique and with materials prepared with the digital mind map technique. The classical method was explained to the classical method group by the researcher and his advisor. A posttest will be administered to both groups 1 week after the lecture. Again, 35 days after the lecture, the study will be completed by applying a permanence test to both groups and a student satisfaction survey to the experimental group. After the study, the mind map technique will be explained to all students in the classical method group who have completed the study, and the topics prepared with the digital mind map technique will be explained to the classical method group and reinforced. Statistical analysis of the data obtained as a result of the research will be carried out using the IBM Statistic 22.0 (IBM Corp., Armonk, NY, USA) program. Study data will be collected using appropriate statistical methods and the significance level will be accepted as p\<0.05.

Digital Mind Map Technique
Students determined as a result of randomization will be given a pre-test before entering the "Family Planning" course planned according to the academic calendar. The determined topics will be explained to the students using the digital mind map technique. A post-test will be administered to the students 1 week after the end of the subject and a satisfaction survey of the digital mind map technique will be administered. Permanence test will be applied 35 days after the last test application.
Classic Method Group
After the students in the control group are determined, a pre-test will be conducted before the subject is given training. The same knowledge test will be repeated as a final test after students have received classical course training and completed the subject. Students will be given a retention exam 35 days after the last exam. After the retention test application, the mind map method will be explained to the students in the control group and the determined topics of the course will be explained with the prepared digital mind map technique. In this way, all students participating in the study will also have access to the additional educational materials used.
