This study is planned as a randomized, single-blind, parallel-group experimental study. The research will be conducted with fourth-year midwifery students enrolled in undergraduate programs in Turkey.
Participants who meet the inclusion criteria will be randomly assigned into two groups:
In the experimental group, after each theoretical session, a web-based gamified module developed using Genially will be provided. These modules will include interactive tasks such as scenario-based questions, sequencing activities, reward systems (badges and points), and problem-solving exercises to enhance active learning.
In the control group, education will be delivered using traditional online teaching methods, including lecture-based presentations (PowerPoint) and verbal explanations.
Data will be collected before the intervention (pre-test) and after the completion of the training (post-test).
Healthy volunteers accepted: Yes
Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.
Inclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria
The web-based gamification program consists of 4 sessions and interactive modules designed to improve knowledge, clinical decision- making skills, motivation, and self-efficacy in postpartum hemorrhage management.
The classical education program consists of 4 sessions and includes standard theoretical instruction on postpartum hemorrhage management without gamification components.
Time frame: 24 hours after completion of the intervention
Participants' motivation levels will be evaluated using the Instructional Materials Motivation Survey (IMMS), which is based on Keller's ARCS model (Attention, Relevance, Confidence, Satisfaction) (Keller, 2010; Dinçer & Doğanay, 2016). The scale consists of 33 items rated on a 5-point Likert scale ranging from 1 ("Not true at all") to 5 ("Very true"). The total score ranges from 33 to 165, with higher scores indicating higher levels of motivation. The Turkish version of the scale has demonstrated high internal consistency, with a Cronbach's alpha coefficient of 0.93.
Time frame: 24 hours before the intervention and within 24 hours after completion of the intervention
Participants' knowledge regarding postpartum hemorrhage management will be evaluated using researcher-developed pre-test and post-test instruments. These tests were developed in accordance with current literature and national guidelines (Republic of Turkey Ministry of Health, 2022; Hamlacı et al., 2017; Durmaz & Kömürcü, 2018).
The tests are designed to assess students' knowledge levels before and after the training and to evaluate the effectiveness of the educational method. The content includes postpartum hemorrhage definition, risk factors, etiology, prevention strategies, and management approaches. Content validity will be ensured by obtaining expert opinions from at least five specialists in the field of obstetrics and postpartum hemorrhage management. Based on expert feedback and pilot testing, necessary revisions will be made, and the final version of the tests will be established.
Time frame: 24 hours before the intervention and within 24 hours after completion of the intervention
Participants' self-efficacy levels will be assessed using the Clinical Skills Self-Efficacy Scale developed by Kang and Chang (2019). The scale evaluates self-efficacy perceptions in cognitive, affective, and psychomotor domains.
The Turkish adaptation of the scale consists of 14 items and a three-factor structure: cognitive (items 1-6), affective (items 7-10), and psychomotor (items 11-14). The scale is rated on a 5-point Likert scale ranging from 1 ("Strongly disagree") to 5 ("Strongly agree"). Higher scores indicate higher levels of self-efficacy.
The Cronbach's alpha values of the Turkish version are reported as 0.91 for the total scale, 0.89 for the cognitive domain, 0.69 for the affective domain, and 0.85 for the psychomotor domain (Bayazıt, Gönüllü & Doğan, 2022).
Time frame: 24 hours after completion of the intervention
Participants' satisfaction with the training program will be assessed using a single-item Visual Analog Scale (VAS) ranging from 0 ("Not satisfied at all") to 10 ("Completely satisfied") (Wewers & Lowe, 1990).
