Gamified Learning and Medication Error Prevention

6. mai 2026 oppdatert av: Cansev BAL, Ondokuz Mayıs University

THE EFFECT OF GAMIFIED LEARNING ON KNOWLEDGE LEVELS REGARDING MEDICATION ERROR PREVENTION IN NURSING STUDENTS: AN EXPERIMENTAL STUDY

This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of gamification (using interactive tools like Kahoot!) on nursing students' awareness and knowledge levels regarding medication safety. Medication errors are a significant concern in healthcare, and innovative educational methods are needed to improve patient safety. The research will compare the traditional teaching methods with a game-based learning approach to determine which is more effective in enhancing students' clinical skills and attention to safety protocols.

Studieoversikt

Detaljert beskrivelse

Following the World Health Organization's (WHO) "Medication Without Harm" challenge and the Institute for Safe Medication Practices (ISMP) guidelines, this study focuses on reducing medication errors through innovative nursing education. The research is designed to measure how gamified learning modules influence the cognitive and practical competencies of nursing students.

The intervention group will participate in sessions incorporating gamification elements, such as competitive quizzes (Kahoot!), rewards, and interactive feedback, while the control group will receive standard lecture-based instruction. Data will be collected using pre-test and post-test knowledge assessments and medication safety awareness scales. The study seeks to provide evidence on whether digital gamification can be a sustainable and more engaging alternative to traditional nursing education models in the context of patient safety.

Intervensjon / Behandling
Eksperimentell: Experimental Intervention
The experimental intervention involves a game-based learning approach focused on medication safety. Participants in this group will receive nursing safety training integrated with gamification elements (Kahoot! ) to enhance their awareness of medication errors and safety protocols. This training is designed based on the World Health Organization's (WHO) 'Medication Without Harm' challenges and international safety guidelines. The intervention aims to increase clinical competency through competitive and engaging digital educational tools.
This study aims to compare traditional education methods with a gamified learning approach (using Kahoot!) to enhance nursing students' knowledge and awareness of medication safety. Starting in the 8th week of the curriculum, the process ensures participant privacy through code names while collecting baseline data via personal information forms and pre-tests. Between weeks 9 and 12, both the experimental and control groups receive 12 hours of theoretical and 24 hours of laboratory instruction on medication errors. Following this core training, the experimental group participates in a 4-week gamification intervention featuring 20-question interactive sessions and class discussions in a separate environment to prevent contamination. The study concludes with a first post-test immediately after the intervention and a second post-test four weeks later to evaluate knowledge retention, finally providing the same gamified experience to the control group at the end of the semester to ensure edu
Ingen inngripen: No Intervention
The control group will receive traditional nursing education regarding medication safety and patient safety protocols. This instruction consists of standard classroom lectures and literature-based materials without the integration of any gamification elements or interactive digital tools like Kahoot!. The content provided is based on the same clinical guidelines (WHO and ISMP) as the experimental group to ensure educational consistency, but it follows a conventional pedagogical approach.
