Evaluation of Psychomotor Skill Training at the Nursing Professional Skill Laboratory by Students and Instructors

Öz

Objective: The aim of this study was to determine the opinions of students and instructors about the psychomotor skill training applied by using skill lists, reasons of skill steps, videos, and scenarios. Method: A total of 82 second-grade students, who studied at an University in a province in Aegean Region, School of Nursing in the 2007-2008 academic year, and 15 instructors, who attended the studies of professional skill laboratory of this class, were included in the study. The skill training was applied by using laboratory scenarios, skill lists and videos, in which four different subjects were discussed. The data were collected with “Professional Skills Feedback Form” which was prepared by the instructors. This form consists of total 12 items including planning, application, and learning subtitles. Each item is evaluated between 0=Very poor and 4=Very good scores. The evaluations were performed by calculating the mean scores of each item. Results: The mean scores of the students and instructors were as follows, respectively: 3.75, 3.40 for the order receive and oral local drug application; 3.85, 3.22 for applying the protective position; 3.86, 3.72 for the application of intravenous, intramuscular and subcutaneous injection; 3.89, 3.52 for the application of intravenous fluid therapy. Students noted that the laboratory studies were amusing, maintaining permanent learning and increasing the problem solving skills. The feedbacks of instructors also supported the positive feedbacks of students. Conclusion: It was determined that different methods used in laboratory studies facilitated learning of the students and provided interest and motivation. Studying on methods that provide students to attend the laboratory with theoretical preparation was suggested.

HEMŞİRELİK MESLEKSEL BECERİ LABORATUARINDAKİ PSİKOMOTOR BECERİ EĞİTİMİNİN ÖĞRENCİ VE EĞİTİCİLER TARAFINDAN DEĞERLENDİRİLMESİ

Öz

Amaç: Bu çalışmanın amacı, beceri listeleri, beceri adımlarının gerekçeleri,video ve senaryolar kullanılarak uygulanan psikomotor beceri eğitimine ilişkin öğrenci ve öğretim elemanlarının görüşlerini belirlemektir.Yöntem: Araştırmaya, Ege Bölgesi’ndeki bir ilde bulunan bir üniversiteninhemşirelik yüksekokulunda 2007-2008 öğretim yılında ikinci sınıfta okuyantoplam 82 öğrenci ve bu sınıfın mesleksel beceri laboratuvar MBL çalışmalarına katılan 15 öğretim elemanı dahil edilmiştir. Çalışmada dört farklı konunun işlendiği laboratuar senaryoları, beceri listeleri ve videolar kullanılarak beceri eğitimi yapılmıştır.Veriler, araştırmacılar tarafından hazırlanmış olan “Mesleksel Beceri Geribildirim Formu” ile toplanmıştır. Bu form; planlama, uygulama ve öğrenmealt başlıklarını içeren toplam 12 maddeden oluşmaktadır. Her bir madde 0=Çok yetersiz ve 4= Çok iyi puanları arasında değerlendirilmektedir. Değerlendirmeler her bir maddenin puan ortalamaları alınarak yapılmıştır.Bulgular: Laboratuar çalışmalarının geribildirim puan ortalamaları öğrenci-öğretim elemanı sırasına göre, istem alma ve oral lokal ilaç uygulama3.75, 3.40; koruyucu pozisyon verme 3.85, 3.22; intravenöz, intramuskülerve subkütan enjeksiyon uygulama 3.86, 3.72; intravenöz sıvı tedavisi uygulama 3.89, 3.52’dir. Öğrenciler; laboratuvar çalışmalarının zevkli, öğrenmeyikalıcı kılan ve problem çözme becerisini artırır özellikte olduğunu belirtmişlerdir. Öğretim elemanlarının geribildirimleri de öğrencilerin olumlu geribildirimlerini destekler niteliktedir. Sonuç: Laboratuar çalışmalarında kullanılan farklı yöntemlerin öğrencininöğrenmesini kolaylaştırdığı, merak ve motivasyon sağladığı belirlenmiştir.Öğrencinin laboratuara teorik hazırlık yaparak gelmesini sağlayacak yöntemler üzerine çalışılması önerilmektedir
