Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Today, circulatory system and heart diseases, especially hypertension, are increasing day by day, and sudden and unexpected cardiac arrests due to these diseases are more common. Therefore, in the face of cardiac arrest that can develop without a certainty of time and place, Basic Life Support (TYD) is an important intervention that can save the lives of individuals with the least damage. Training on BLS, which is compulsory for healthcare professionals, is also given to some employees selected from other institutions. From this point of view, future teacher candidates who can be a role model in the society, at the same time reflect the importance of the subject to the group they work with and continue to teach, are an important group in terms of these trainings. Therefore, in this study, digital storytelling and face-to-face applied techniques will be given to teacher candidates via social media (Whatsapp) and the impact of these trainings on the knowledge and skill levels of teacher candidates will be evaluated comparatively.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Purpose In order to develop knowledge and skills for a certain period of time, training is required for the BLS intervention to be performed in cases of cardiac arrest. It is important to provide BLS training for teachers who can reach a large part of the society. Therefore, it would be beneficial to train pre-service teachers on this subject during their education. BLS studies for teachers in the literature are generally limited to descriptive or one-time theoretical face-to-face trainings. This research is planned to evaluate the effects of digital stories and face-to-face applied basic life support training on the knowledge and skill levels of teacher candidates.

Method The universe of the research will consist of 711 pre-service teachers studying in the 3rd grade of Trabzon University teaching departments. The sample will consist of a total of 76 teacher candidates selected by power analysis. The sample group determined by the stratified sampling method from the departments of the education faculty will be selected according to the simple random sampling method and distributed to the groups as 38 digital storytelling and 38 face-to-face applied training groups. In this pretest-posttest experimental study, data will be collected by using the student descriptive characteristics form, Basic Life Support Information Form and Basic Life Support Skills Evaluation Form in the pre-test. After the pre-test, BLS training will be carried out with digital storytelling for one group and face-to-face applied to the other group. The initiatives of both groups will last two months according to the program. After the training, post-test applications will be given to both groups. A permanence test will be given to both groups 1 month after the post-test.

PARALLEL

The sample group determined by the stratified sampling method from the departments of the education faculty will be selected according to the simple random sampling method and distributed to the groups as 38 digital storytelling and 38 face-to-face applied training groups. In this pretest-posttest experimental study, data will be collected by using the student descriptive characteristics form, Basic Life Support Information Form and Basic Life Support Skills Evaluation Form in the pre-test. After the pre-test, BLS training will be carried out with digital storytelling for one group and face-to-face applied to the other group. The initiatives of both groups will last two months according to the program. After the training, post-test applications will be given to both groups. A permanence test will be given to both groups 1 month after the post-test.
Primary Study Purpose

HEALTH_SERVICES_RESEARCH

Blinding Strategy

NONE

Because the initiative of the study is based on the type of education. While obtaining informed consent, the purpose and content of the study were explained to the participants. For this reason, trainees know whether they will receive basic life support with digital storytelling or face-to-face applied.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Digital Storytelling Group

After the digital storytelling group teacher candidates are determined, forms and digital stories will be prepared to be used as pre-test, post-test and retention test. Afterwards, the skill assessment, in which the pre-test form will be applied, will be observed without intervention and evaluated by the researcher. Then, digital stories about TYD will be uploaded to social media for teacher candidates to watch. After watching these applications for two months, one-to-one applications will be made with teacher candidates in face-to-face education models. One month after the last test, the posttest and permanence test will be held in the same environment.

Digital Stories and Face-to-face Basic Life Support Trainings

Intervention Type OTHER

In this study, digital storytelling and face-to-face applied techniques will be given to teacher candidates via social media (Whatsapp) and the impact of these trainings on the knowledge and skill levels of teacher candidates will be evaluated comparatively.

Face to Face Applied Training Group

After the teacher candidates of the face-to-face application group are determined, the seminar training and program will be prepared. Then, the forms developed by the researcher will be applied as a pre-test. Pre-test skills of teacher candidates will be evaluated by the researcher with a skill evaluation form by making face-to-face observations on the model without any intervention. After the 8-week training of the teacher candidates is over, knowledge and skills will be given as a post-test. One month after the last test, retention tests will be done in a similar way.
