Summary

This study looks at whether using word searches and case-based puzzles can help nursing students learn about stoma care better than traditional lectures. About 87 second-year nursing students will be randomly assigned to either puzzle-based learning or standard teaching. Their knowledge will be tested before, right after, and four weeks after the training to see which method works best.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
puzzle-based learning intervention (word searches and case-based puzzles)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could show that fun, active learning methods help nursing students learn stoma care better than standard lectures.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage educational study with only 87 students at one university. Results may not apply to other settings or students.
