Brief Summary

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

There are limited studies in the literature on the peer-led facilitator involved in each stage of the simulation in simulation-based experience in nursing education. The purpose of this research is to examine the effect of having a competent senior nursing undergraduate student with simulation knowledge and experience as a facilitator at every stage of the simulation, on the effectiveness of the simulation (Simulation Effectiveness Tool), and on the participants' satisfaction and self-confidence in learning.

Method: This research is a prospective, randomized, crossover-designed experimental type of research. Structured Student Information Form, Modified Simulation Effectiveness Tool, Student Satisfaction, and Self-Confidence in Learning Scale will be used to collect data. The population of the research consists of all students enrolled in the first year of the Hamidiye Faculty of Nursing at the University of Health Sciences. Since voluntary participation in the research is based, students who want to participate will constitute the sample. Students will be divided into two groups of eight and will undergo two simulations for two consecutive days. Students in the first arm completed the simulation under the leadership of a peer facilitator on the first day, and under the leadership of an instructor facilitator on the second day; Students in the second arm will receive simulation training under the leadership of an instructor facilitator on the first day, and under the leadership of a peer facilitator on the second day.

Detailed Description

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

The instructor who facilitates the simulation training has a "Simulation Applications" certificate. The peer facilitator is a 4th-grade student who has received 2-day simulation training and has at least 3 simulation experiences.

Students will be divided into two groups of eight and will undergo two simulations for two consecutive days. Students in the first arm completed the simulation under the leadership of a peer facilitator on the first day, and under the leadership of an instructor facilitator on the second day; Students in the second arm will receive simulation training under the leadership of an instructor facilitator on the first day, and under the leadership of a peer facilitator on the second day.

In this study, data will be collected through a 3-stage application process.

1. Information

* Respiratory Activity and Diabetes Management topics, which are in the Health Assessment course curriculum, will be explained to first-year students in the spring semester of the 2023-2024 Academic Year at the Faculty of Nursing, where the study will be carried out, by the instructor in charge of the course on the days and hours specified in the course program.
* At the end of the course, explain to the students the purpose of the study, the method, and that the data will be used only for scientific purposes.
* Students who volunteer to participate in the study are explained to the students who volunteer to participate in the study, and their verbal and written consent is obtained by explaining the duration, flow, and expectations of the application.
* Informing students by deciding on the application day and time
* Providing orientation to students by giving them information about the simulation environment and management in the application laboratory on the application day.
2. Simulation Training

* Sharing the patient's information for which a scenario text was created for the students before the application.
* Explaining what the goals are expected from students.
* Carrying out both simulation applications on separate days and in a way that students in both groups stay in the simulation environment for the same amount of time.
3. Analysis

* Holding a peer evaluation meeting after the simulation, where the groups experience the simulation.
* Discuss students' thoughts about the process (their practices, decisions, and outcomes) regarding their simulation experience.
* Discussing expected and achieved goals.
* Following the analysis meeting, the Structured Student Information and Evaluation Form, Modified Simulation Effectiveness Tool, Student Satisfaction, and Self-Confidence in Learning Scale are administered to the students.
