PechaKucha as a Reinforcement Tool for Teaching Vital Signs Skills in Nursing Students
Sponsor: Siirt University
Summary
This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of the PechaKucha presentation method as a reinforcement tool in teaching vital signs skills to first-year nursing students. A total of 100 nursing students will participate and be divided into two groups of 50 students each. Before the intervention, all participants will complete a pre-test to assess their baseline knowledge related to vital signs. Based on the pre-test results, students will be randomized into either the experimental group or the control group. The experimental group will receive reinforcement training using the innovative PechaKucha presentation method, while the control group will receive reinforcement through a traditional PowerPoint presentation. After the reinforcement sessions, both groups will be evaluated on their vital signs skills through a practical application exam. Additionally, participants will complete a post-test to assess their knowledge after the intervention. Feedback and satisfaction with the training methods will also be gathered to understand their perspectives on the learning experience

Interventions
PechaKucha
The PechaKucha format consists of 20 slides, each displayed for 20 seconds, focusing on vital signs measurement skills. The method emphasizes a fast-paced, engaging, and visual learning experience designed to enhance retention and improve students' practical knowledge and skills in measuring vital signs.
PowerPoint
The PowerPoint presentation will cover the same vital signs measurement content but in a more conventional, linear format. The intervention will aim to reinforce students' understanding of vital signs through text and images, with a slower pace compared to the PechaKucha method.
