The Effect of Case-based Teaching on Critical Thinking Motivation, Motivation and Knowledge Acquisition in Midwifery Undergraduate Students
Case-based teaching will be applied to second year midwifery undergraduate students. The intervention group (case-based teaching implementation group) and the control group each consist of 35 students.
Materials and Methods: The randomized controlled study will be conducted between March-April 2024 with 70 students (35 intervention group and 35 control group) who are studying in the second year of Kahramanmaraş Sütçü İmam University, Faculty of Health Sciences, Department of Midwifery and taking the risky pregnancy and care course for the first time. Case-based teaching will be applied to the students in the intervention group. The students will be informed about the method to be followed in the study, the voluntary information form will be read to those who want to participate in the study, and their verbal and written permissions will be obtained. "Student Information Form", "Critical Thinking Motivation Scale", "Academic Motivation Scale" and "Knowledge Assessment Form" will be applied to the students as pre-test data with face-to-face method before the classical theoretical education in the classroom. Classical in-class theoretical education will be given to all students on the most frequently encountered risky pregnancy diagnoses such as hemorrhages, hyperemesis gravidarum, oligohydramnios and urinary system diseases. In the intervention group, the cases prepared on the basis of the subject taught to the students after each subject will be applied after the theoretical teaching of each subject within the scope of the Risky Pregnancy and Care course. The application will take place on different days, in 4 sessions and in each session, case-based teaching will be done for different topics. Each application is expected to last approximately 60-100 minutes. The cases in question were created by the researchers by reviewing the literature. The students in the control group will not be given any application after the classical theoretical education in the classroom. "Student Information Form (13th and 14th questions)", "Critical Thinking Motivation Scale", "Academic Motivation Scale", "Knowledge Assessment Form" and "Visual Comparison Scale" will be applied to all students as post-test data after the case-based instruction of four subjects.
