Summary

This study aims to evaluate the effect of using inverted classroom design on students' knowledge, skills and anxiety levels in teaching episiotomy application and repair, one of the interventions frequently used in labour.

Detailed description

The flipped classroom is a new and popular teaching model in which lessons traditionally conducted in the classroom become homework or homework responsibilities and lessons that would normally constitute homework become classroom lessons. In the flipped classroom, students become responsible for their own learning process and need to manage their own pace of learning, while the teacher helps the students instead of simply imparting information. While flipped classrooms are seen to offer many positive educational outcomes, they also have some limitations. In the flipped model, student learning achievement and satisfaction can be increased and it is considered to be more economical than traditional teaching. The literature shows that the flipped teaching model requires both opportunities and challenges. Within the scope of the study, in order to evaluate the effect of using inverted classroom design in teaching episiotomy application and repair on students' knowledge, skills and anxiety levels, midwifery students taking normal birth and postnatal period courses will be divided into two groups, one group in the form of traditional teaching and one group in the form of inverted classroom design during the application of episiotomy teaching. The study data will be collected through Student Identification Form, State Anxiety Inventory, Episiotomy Information Form and Episiotomy Skill Evaluation Form. The data obtained from the study will be analysed with SPSS programme. It is thought that the study will make an important contribution to the literature in terms of evaluating the effect of the inverted classroom on teaching episiotomy repair.
