About this trial

Nursing education plays a crucial role in ensuring nurses possess the necessary knowledge and skills to provide high-quality care. Inadequacies in knowledge and practical skills can compromise patient safety and negatively impact care quality. Therefore, integrating both theoretical and practical education that covers cognitive, psychomotor, and affective learning domains is essential for nursing students.

The micro-teaching method has emerged as an innovative educational approach, especially relevant for today's technology-savvy Generation Z students. It involves delivering small, focused learning units enriched with interactive multimedia content, which enhances knowledge retention, skill acquisition, and reduces student anxiety. This method also allows students to repeatedly access short videos and multimedia materials, enabling flexible and effective learning.

Intramuscular (IM) injection is a fundamental skill nursing students must master. Specifically, the ventrogluteal site is considered safer and more effective compared to the dorsogluteal site, as it is associated with fewer complications such as pain, bleeding, and nerve injury.

This study aims to examine the impact of ventrogluteal injection training using the micro-teaching method on nursing students' knowledge, skills, and anxiety levels. It is anticipated that this innovative educational approach will enhance learning outcomes, increase patient safety, and pave the way for future research in nursing education.

The study is unique as it explores an area that has not been previously investigated. Its findings are expected to contribute significantly to the literature, influencing the development of effective teaching methods not only in nursing education but also across other educational fields. Additionally, the study holds importance as it contributes to a doctoral thesis, highlighting its academic value.

Student Information Form

This form was created by the researchers and consists of 7 questions to measure the demographic characteristics of the participants.

Pre-application
2

Ventrogluteal Injection Skill Evaluation Form

This form was prepared by the researcher based on the literature (Ay, 2015; Akbıyık, 2021, pp.535-551; Craven et al., 2015; Lynn, 2015; Süzen, 2015, pp.506-514) in order to evaluate the students' ability to administer IM injection to the ventrogluteal region and the form will be finalized by taking expert opinions. In the form, 33 procedures were listed for the steps of material preparation for the application, drug preparation in accordance with the order, patient identity verification, determination of the ventrogluteal injection site, and drug administration to the ventrogluteal injection site. For the content validity of the procedure steps, the opinions of 5 faculty members in the field of nursing principles and 3 faculty members who are experts in the field of teaching will be taken. The form will be applied to third year students because they have studied before. After the preliminary application of the form, item analysis will be performed for each question to determine the di

Time frame
after the application, the student's video recording was monitored will be scored (Day 1 and 31)
3

Ventrogluteal Injection Achievement Test

This form was prepared by the researcher in line with the literature (Ay, 2015; Akbıyık, 2021, pp.535-551; Craven et al., 2015; Lynn, 2015; Süzen, 2015, pp.506-514) and the form will be finalized by taking expert opinions. The form contains an equal number of "True" and "False" statements. The form includes propositions that measure knowledge about ventrogluteal injection such as what ventrogluteal injection is, to which muscle it is applied, in which age group it can be applied, what to pay attention to before, during and after the injection. For the content validity of the questions, the opinions of 5 faculty members in the field of nursing principles and 3 faculty members who are experts in the field of teaching will be taken. The test will be administered to third year students because of their previous education. After the pre-application of the achievement test, item analysis will be performed for each question to determine the degree of difficulty and discrimination.

Micro Teaching Group Evaluation Form

It was created by the researcher in line with the literature (Popovich \& Katz, 2009; Göçer, 2016; Yang et al., 2019). The statements in the form consisting of 12 evaluations will be sent to the opinions of 3 instructors who are experts in the field of teaching. This form will be used both by the researcher and the peers in the same group to evaluate the training of the student practitioner.

Time frame
will be used in the student's evaluation of the trainer after the training (Day 31)
