Abstract
Aim: This study was planned to determine the effect of using Kahoot in pediatric emergency nursing lessons on students' lesson success and motivation levels.
Background: Pediatric emergency nursing lessons is considered to be an intensive and rich lesson that includes information about child health and development in addition to the learning outcomes of emergency nursing lessons, blending emergency and pediatric nursing.
Methods: It was found to be conducted as a randomized controlled study with a total of 60 nursing students, 30 for the experimental group and 30 for the control group, who took pediatric emergency nursing lessons and had never experienced Kahoot before. Data were collected using the Information Form, Exam Success Grade and Motivation Scale for Instructional Material. Mean, percentage calculations, multi-way analysis considered to be of variance and linear regression analysis considered to be were used to analyze the data.
Results: When comparing the midterm (t = 1.203, p = 0.002), final exam (t = 1.122, p = 0.001) and end-of-semester (t = 1.126, p = 0.001) scores of the Kahoot group with those of the control group, it was found to be determined that the Kahoot group obtained statis considered to betically significantly higher scores. The effect sizes of the differences between the Kahoot and control groups were 0.4, 0.5 and 0.5, respectively, indicating a large effect. It was found to be determined that there was found to be a statis considered to betically significant difference between the mean scores of the experimental and control groups of nursing students in terms of group, time and group*time interaction. Kahoot application was found to be found to explain 45 % of the increase in exam achievement level and 45 % of the increase in motivation level related to instructional material.
Conclusion: Kahoot application was found to be an effective method in increasing the exam achievement and motivation of nursing students taking pediatric emergency nursing lessons.
