A PechaKucha and Infographics Presentations among the Nursing Students: A Quasi-Experimental Study

Abstract

Aim: This study aims to compare the effects of creating PechaKucha (PK) versus infographics presentations of a Gestatinal Diabetes Mellitus (GDM) and Gestational Hypertension (GHT) on nursing students' learning performance and satisfaction. Material and Methods: This quasi-experimental study was conducted during the 2022-2023 academic year in a nursing school with 30 students in Ankara, Turkey. Students created two presentations, one using the PK format and the other using infographic presentation format. In the study, GDM Knowledge Test and GHT Knowledge Test were used to evaluate the students' learning performance, and The PK and Infographics Presentation Methods Scale and The Evaluation Form for Experience with PK and Infographics Methods were used to evaluate their satisfaction levels. Results: The results of the study indicated that there were no significant differences in both the knowledge levels (p > 0.05) and the satisfaction levels (p = 0.161) between the groups where PK and infographic techniques were used. However, it was observed that students were highly satisfied with using these methods, and they expressed their desire to actively incorporate these techniques into their coursework. Conclusion: In nursing education, integrating tailored PK and infographic methods alongside traditional approaches is crucial for enhancing both students' knowledge and satisfaction levels.

Hemşirelik Öğrencilerinde PechaKucha ve İnfografik Sunumları: Yarı Deneysel Bir Çalışma

Abstract

Amaç: Bu çalışmada, Gestasyonel Diyabetis Mellitus ve Gestasyonel Hipertansiyon konularında hazırlanan PechaKucha (PK) ve infografik sunumlarının hemşirelik öğrencilerinin öğrenme performansını ve memnuniyetlerini karşılaştırmak amaçlanmıştır. Gereç ve Yöntem: Bu yarı deneysel çalışma 2022-2023 eğitim-öğretim yılında Ankara'daki bir hemşirelik bölümünde gerçekleştirilmiştir. Araştırma çalışmaya katılmayı kabul eden 30 öğrenci ile yürütülmüştür. Öğrenciler, birinde PK formatını ve diğerinde ise infografik sunum formatını kullanarak iki sunum hazırlamışlardır. Öğrencilerin öğrenme performansını değerlendirmek için GHT Bilgi Testi ve GDM Bilgi Testi, memnuniyet düzeylerini değerlendirmek için PK ve İnfografik Sunum Metodları Ölçeği ve PK ve İnfografik Methodları Deneyimleri Değerlendirme Formu kullanılmıştır. Bulgular: Araştırmanın sonuçları, PK ve infografik tekniklerinin kullanıldığı gruplar arasında hem bilgi düzeyleri (p > 0.05) hem de memnuniyet düzeyleri (p = 0.161) açısından anlamlı bir fark olmadığını gösterdi. Ancak öğrencilerin bu yöntemleri kullanmaktan oldukça memnun kaldıkları ve bu teknikleri derslerine aktif olarak dâhil etme isteklerini dile getirdikleri gözlenmiştir. Sonuç: Farklı öğretim tekniklerinin kullanılması yalnızca öğrencilerin bilgi düzeylerinin geliştirilmesi için değil aynı zamanda memnuniyet düzeyleri açısından da önemlidir. Hemşirelik eğitiminde geleneksel öğrenme yöntemlerinin yanı sıra öğrenme hedeflerine uygun PK ve infografik yöntemlerin de kullanılması önerilmektedir.
