Abstrakt: Aim: This study was conducted to examine the effect of nursing students' use of artificial intelligence (AI) tools while preparing patient education materials on the understandability, actionability and quality of the material in terms of content.
Background: AI can significantly improve nursing students' learning experiences, helping them to be better prepared for the challenges of a rapidly changing healthcare environment. By ensuring that materials are prepared in accordance with students' individual learning styles, preferences and needs, AI can both improve the effectiveness of educational materials and contribute to better learning outcomes.
Design: This study was conducted as a randomized controlled experimental study.
Methods: The study completed with 180 nursing students (control group = 89; intervention group = 91). The students in the control group used auxiliary tools such as books, journals and websites while preparing patient education materials. The students in the intervention group used AI tools in addition to tools such as books, journals and websites. Patient Education Materials Assessment Tool (PEMAT) and Global Quality Scale were used to evaluate the educational materials.
Results: There are significant differences in students' PEMAT scores between the intervention and control groups in terms of both understandability, actionability and quality (p<0.001).
Conclusions: Nursing students' use of AI tools in preparing patient education materials has increased the understandability, actionability and quality of educational materials. The results show that the integration of AI into educational material preparation processes plays an important role in improving the effectiveness of educational contents.
