About this study
Official title: EbeCast: Development and Evaluation of a QR Code-Supported Vodcast-Based Digital Learning Platform for Improving Women's Health Skills Among Midwifery Students
The use of digital learning technologies in health sciences education has increased substantially in recent years. In particular, video-based learning resources enable students to access educational materials regardless of time and location, thereby supporting more flexible and effective learning. However, teaching essential women's health clinical skills, including breast self-examination, vulvar self-examination, and gynecological examination, remains challenging because of limited laboratory practice, restricted clinical opportunities, and the need to protect patient privacy. These limitations may reduce students' opportunities for repeated practice and negatively affect both skill acquisition and long-term retention.
This project aims to develop EbeCast, a QR code-supported, vodcast-based digital learning platform designed to improve women's health clinical skills among midwifery students. The platform will include instructional vodcast videos, QR code-supported clinical skill cards, module-based assessments, and learning analytics. Students will be able to access educational materials anytime, review clinical procedures repeatedly, and progress at their own learning pace. Although previous studies have demonstrated the educational benefits of podcasts and vodcasts in health professions education, there is very limited evidence regarding QR code-supported digital learning platforms specifically designed for teaching women's health skills in midwifery education and evaluated through randomized controlled trials. Therefore, EbeCast is expected to provide an innovative and sustainable educational model for midwifery training.

The project is designed as a two-phase methodological and experimental study. During the first phase, educational materials, vodcast videos, QR code-supported skill cards, and the EbeCast digital learning platform will be developed. During the second phase, the effectiveness of the platform will be evaluated using a parallel-group randomized controlled trial with pre-test, post-test, and follow-up assessments. The study sample will consist of 64 third-year midwifery students (intervention = 32; control = 32) enrolled at the Faculty of Health Sciences, Karabük University. Both groups will receive the standard theoretical and laboratory curriculum, while the intervention group will additionally receive four weeks of access to the EbeCast platform. Data will be collected using a Personal Information Form, the Women's Health Clinical Skills Knowledge Test, Women's Health Clinical Skills Assessment Checklists, the Clinical Skills Self-Efficacy Scale, and platform usage analytics.
The project is expected to improve students' knowledge, clinical skill performance, self-efficacy, and long-term retention of women's health skills while providing an evidence-based, accessible, and sustainable digital learning model. Furthermore, the findings are expected to contribute to the digital transformation of midwifery education, provide an adaptable educational model for other health disciplines, and support future national and international scientific publications.

### Detailed Description
This study is designed as a two-phase methodological and experimental investigation to develop and evaluate EbeCast, a QR code-supported, vodcast-based digital learning platform intended to improve women's health-related clinical skills among midwifery students.
Phase 1: Development of the EbeCast Digital Learning Platform
The first phase involves developing educational content and a web-based digital learning platform covering three essential women's health clinical skills: breast self-examination, vulvar self-examination, and gynecological examination.
Educational materials will be prepared in accordance with current national and international clinical guidelines. Instructional vodcast videos will demonstrate clinical procedures using simulation models and will incorporate narration, explanatory visuals, and subtitles. QR code-supported clinical skill cards will provide direct access to relevant educational modules and procedural demonstrations.
The EbeCast platform will include secure user authentication, personalized student dashboards, educational modules, module-based assessments, and learning analytics. Students will be able to access instructional materials through smartphones, tablets, or computers and review clinical procedures at their own pace.
Phase 2: Randomized Controlled Evaluation of EbeCast
The second phase will employ a parallel-group randomized controlled trial with pre-test, post-test, and follow-up assessments.
The study will include 64 third-year midwifery students enrolled in the Women's Health and Diseases course at Karabük University, Faculty of Health Sciences. Eligible students who provide written informed consent will be randomly allocated using computer-generated randomization to either the intervention group (n=32) or the control group (n=32).
Both groups will receive the standard theoretical instruction and laboratory-based clinical skills training included in the existing curriculum.
In addition to standard education, participants in the intervention group will receive access to the EbeCast digital learning platform for four weeks. During this period, students will be able to watch instructional vodcasts, access QR code-supported clinical skill cards, complete educational modules, and repeatedly review clinical procedures.
Participants in the control group will continue receiving standard theoretical and laboratory education without the additional EbeCast intervention.
Outcome Assessment
Data will be collected at three time points:
- Baseline (pre-test), before the educational intervention.
- Post-test, immediately after the four-week intervention.
- Follow-up, four weeks after completion of the intervention.
Students' knowledge of women's health clinical skills will be assessed using the Women's Health Clinical Skills Knowledge Test. Clinical skill performance will be evaluated in the laboratory using structured assessment checklists for breast examination, vulvar examination, and gynecological examination. Clinical skills self-efficacy will be measured using a standardized self-efficacy scale.
Additionally, platform usage data, including login frequency, video viewing duration, QR code usage, and module completion rates, will be collected for the intervention group.
The effectiveness of EbeCast will be evaluated by comparing changes in knowledge, clinical skill performance, and self-efficacy between the intervention and control groups across the three assessment points. Group-by-time interaction effects will be examined using mixed-design analysis of variance, with appropriate alternative statistical methods applied when necessary.
The follow-up assessment will also allow evaluation of the retention of knowledge and clinical skills after completion of the educational intervention.

Clinical summary
The research question as the sponsor registered it. This describes what the study plans to test, not what it found.
The use of digital learning technologies in health sciences education has increased substantially in recent years. In particular, video-based learning resources enable students to access educational materials regardless of time and location, thereby supporting more flexible and effective learning. However, teaching essential women's health clinical skills, including breast self-examination, vulvar self-examination, and gynecological examination, remains challenging because of limited laboratory practice, restricted clinical opportunities, and the need to protect patient privacy. These limitations may reduce students' opportunities for repeated practice and negatively affect both skill acquisition and long-term retention.
This project aims to develop EbeCast, a QR code-supported, vodcast-based digital learning platform designed to improve women's health clinical skills among midwifery students. The platform will include instructional vodcast videos, QR code-supported clinical skill cards, module-based assessments, and learning analytics. Students will be able to access educational materials anytime, review clinical procedures repeatedly, and progress at their own learning pace. Although previous studies have demonstrated the educational benefits of podcasts and vodcasts in health professions education, there is very limited evidence regarding QR code-supported digital learning platforms specifically designed for teaching women's health skills in midwifery education and evaluated through randomized controlled trials. Therefore, EbeCast is expected to provide an innovative and sustainable educational model for midwifery training.
