The aim of the training on testicular cancer and Testicular Self Examination is to increase the awareness of individuals and to develop health behaviors for early diagnosis. However, in the literature, it is seen that in the training studies conducted on this subject, mostly the training videos and presentations are made with the classical expression method. In this study, unlike other studies, the effect of the training given with the Flipped Learning Model on the knowledge and beliefs of male students regarding testicular cancer and Testicular Self Examination will be examined. It is thought that the results of the study to be obtained will guide health professionals in the selection of teaching models to increase the effectiveness of training activities to be planned for young adult males for the early diagnosis of testicular cancer.

The Flipped Learning Model is a blended learning model that aims to facilitate learning with activities such as the student's pre-lesson access to educational materials such as videos and presentations through technology, and activities such as discussion, practice and problem solving during the lesson. Flipped Learning Model can be defined as a pedagological approach centered on individual learning rather than group learning. Studies show that the Flipped Learning Model has an impact on student success and satisfaction. The Flipped Learning Model has the potential to engage nursing students to meet today's needs. The complexity of students and contemporary healthcare, especially in healthcare, calls for education reform programs such as nursing highlight the students' need for problem solving, reasoning, and applying theory to practice. It manifested itself in student-based learning and case-based learning The main purpose of this study is to examine the effect of the education about testicular cancer and Testicular Self Examination given with the Flipped Learning Model on the knowledge and health beliefs of nursing students. Another aim of the study is to examine the effect of using Flipped Learning Model on student satisfaction.

The research will be carried out in Eastern Mediterranean University, Faculty of Health Sciences, Department of Nursing in the 2020-2021 academic year. Data collection will begin after the board and institution permissions are obtained for the research.

The universe of the research; Eastern Mediterranean University, Faculty of Health Sciences, Nursing Department will constitute a total of 68 male students in the 2020-2021 academic year. The sample is; After the ethics committee and institution permission is obtained, students who meet the research criteria, who are informed about the purpose of the research, and who are willing to participate in the research will be formed. The randomization of the groups to the control and intervention groups in the study will be determined by lot from the list of participants in the study.

Sample including criteria;

• Over the age of 18,
• Students who did not take the Surgical Nursing course before The data in the study were presented in the "Introductory and Self-Examination Features Questionnaire" in order to describe the characteristics of the students and testicular cancer and testicular Self Examination; It will be collected with "Testicular Cancer and Testicular Self Examination Knowledge Test" and "Champion's Health Belief Model Scale".

Research Variables Dependent variables: The dependent variables of the study were the scores obtained from the knowledge test on testicular cancer and TSE, and the Champion's Health Belief Model Scale.

Independent variables: The independent variables of the research were; Introductory features such as age, marital status, personal and family history, risk perception, information status and source of information, performing TSE, frequency of examination, and barriers to not performing TSE were created.

Data Collection Process The data of the research were collected in the fall semester of the 2020-2021 Academic Year, between December 2020 and March 2021. The data collection process was carried out in two stages, before and after the education, separately for the students in Group I and Group II. After obtaining the necessary permissions, two separate classes, Group I and Group 2, were created over Microsoft teams.

Students in Group I were asked to fill out the Introductory and Characteristics Questionnaire for TSE, the "Testicular Cancer and TSE Knowledge Test" and Champion's Health Belief Model Scale" before the training. Students were asked to come prepared to the planned lesson by uploading educational materials (lecture presentation, video) through the system in accordance with the flipped learning model. Classical presentations were not made to the students, and the education was carried out in the form of question and answer discussion, in line with the Flipped Learning Model. Two weeks after the training, the students were asked to fill in the "Testicular Cancer and TSE Knowledge Test" and the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), which includes their satisfaction with the training method. Six weeks after the training, Champion's Health Belief Model Scale" was filled.

The students in Group II were asked to fill out the Introductory and Testicular Self-Examination Questionnaire, "Testicular Cancer and Testicular Self-Examination Knowledge Test" and Champion's Health Belief Model Scale, which were prepared with google forms before the training. Afterwards, the students were given a traditional education consisting of a Powerpoint presentation, which would last 20-30 on average. In the last 10 minutes of the lesson, the questions of the students were answered. Two weeks after the training, the students were asked to fill in the "Testicular Cancer and TSE Knowledge Test" and the Visual Analog Scale (VAS) that included their satisfaction with the training method. Six weeks after the training, the "Champion's Health Belief Model Scale" was filled.
