OTHER	OSCE	Students will be assigned to experimental and control groups based on their knowledge test scores using block randomization. The following day, all students will be taken to the laboratory for practice. The instructor will demonstrate IV catheter insertion once on a mannequin, following the procedural steps, and then students will work with the instructor in groups of eight. Each student will practice the procedure on the mannequin at least once. Students in the experimental group will undergo OSCE (Obstructive Skills Test). The OSCE will be prepared in a laboratory setting with two stations where students will practice their skills. Students will be asked to perform IV catheter insertion at the first station. At the second station, students will perform a procedure chosen by lottery. Students will not be evaluated on the skill at the second station. Students will have 5 minutes to perform the skill at each station. A bell will ring every 5 minutes, and students will move from one stat
