Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
Hypotheses of the Study Ho: There is no statistically significant difference between the nurses' competency levels who participated in the online education developed for evidence-based practices and those who were informed of the educational booklet.
H1. The nurses' competency levels who participated in the online education developed for evidence-based practices are statistically higher than those who were informed of the educational booklet.
Ho: There is no statistically significant difference between the clinical decision-making levels of nurses who participated in the online education developed for evidence-based practices and nurses who were informed with the educational booklet.
H1: The clinical decision-making levels of the nurses who participated in the online education developed for evidence-based practices are statistically higher than those informed with the educational booklet.
Participants will:
The nurses in the intervention group are expected to fill in the data collection tools (Introductory Information Form for Nurses, Evidence-Based Practice Competency Scale, Clinical Decision Making Scale in Nursing) before the education and then participate in the education about evidence-based practices on the online platform and fill in the data collection tools (Evidence-Based Practice Competency Scale, Clinical Decision Making Scale in Nursing and Education Evaluation Form) 20 days after the education.
The nurses in the control group were expected to complete the data collection tools (Introductory Information Form for Nurses, Evidence-Based Practice Competency Scale, Clinical Decision Making Scale in Nursing) before the education booklet was given and 20 days after the education.

Experimental group nurses working in the inpatient wards
The nurses in the experimental group are expected to fill in the data collection tools (Introductory Information Form for Nurses, Evidence-Based Practice Competency Scale, Clinical Decision Making Scale in Nursing) before the education and then participate in the education about evidence-based practices on the online platform and fill in the data collection tools (Evidence-Based Practice Competency Scale, Clinical Decision Making Scale in Nursing and Education Evaluation Form) 20 days after the education.
Online Educational Intervention
An educational program for EBP based on the online learning model was planned to be developed based on the literature and expert opinions. In the program, in line with the literature, the introduction to the EBP, the importance of EBP, EBP steps, clinical research question design in line with PICO, and introduction of EBP databases. It is planned to include topics such as literature search strategies, types of research, use of scientific research and evidence evaluation tools, introduction of clinical decision support systems, reflection of EBP on patient care and clinical decision-making processes, and it is planned to determine the final version of the education content with expert opinions. The program will include recorded videos, slides and documents for each module. The content of the program will be integrated into the Koç University Online Programs Platform by the experts working at Koç University Educational Technologies Unit.
Control group nurses working in the inpatient wards
The nurses in the control group were expected to complete the data collection tools (Introductory Information Form for Nurses, Evidence-Based Practice Competency Scale, Clinical Decision Making Scale in Nursing) before the educational booklet was given and 20 days after the education.
Educational Booklet
An educational booklet for EBP was planned to be developed based on the literature and expert opinions. The learning objectives and content of the educational booklet to be developed will be created by considering Bloom\'s taxonomy. In line with the literature, it is planned to include topics such as introduction to EBP, importance of EBP, evidence-based practice steps, clinical research question design in line with PICO, introduction of evidence-based databases, literature search strategies, research types, use of scientific research and evidence evaluation tools, introduction of clinical decision support systems, reflections of EBP on patient care and clinical decision-making processes, and finalization of the booklet topics with expert opinions.
