Abstract
Aim
This study aimed to evaluate the effects of stoma care training delivered using PechaKucha (PK) on the stoma care skills and anxiety of nursing students.
Background
Innovative learning methods are needed to make the educational content of nursing courses more interesting and comprehensible. The PK presentation technique is used in various business sectors and can be considered as a novel teaching strategy for the development of stoma care skills in nursing education. The PK method is a visual and narrative slide-based presentation technique involving 20 slides (usually containing images only) that are shown for 20 s each, for a total presentation length of 6 min and 40 s.
Design
A single-blind randomized controlled study was conducted according to the CONSORT guideline.
Methods
The study sample comprised 96 first-year nursing students (47 in the intervention group and 49 controls). Data were collected during the 2024 spring semester using a student information form, the Stoma Care Skill Rubric and the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory. Stoma care training was delivered using the PK method for the intervention group and a classic lecture presentation for the control group. SPSS version 25.0 was used for statistical analysis. Independent-samples t-test was used to evaluate differences in mean stoma care skill and anxiety scores between the intervention and control groups.
Results
The mean stoma care skills score two days after training was significantly higher in the intervention group (mean 42.59, SD 4.44) than in the control group (mean 33.87, SD 7.52) (p<0.05). Mean state anxiety scores after training did not differ significantly between the intervention group (mean 41.74, SD 6.51) and the control group (mean 43.08, SD 6.62) (p>0.05; Table 3).
Conclusion
The PK method can be used as an alternative to classic slide-based presentations in nursing education. This study offers the first literature data regarding the efficacy of PK-based education for nursing care skills. Concise and image-based PK presentations may make the skill steps easier to understand and remember.
期刊介绍:
Nurse Education in Practice enables lecturers and practitioners to both share and disseminate evidence that demonstrates the actual practice of education as it is experienced in the realities of their respective work environments. It is supportive of new authors and will be at the forefront in publishing individual and collaborative papers that demonstrate the link between education and practice.
