Brief summary
Background: Pecha Kucha may support concise and organized health education presentations, but its contribution when added to conventional PowerPoint presentations remains unclear. Method: In this randomized, posttest-only controlled study, 272 first-year nursing students were assigned to PowerPoint-only or PowerPoint-plus-Pecha Kucha groups. Presentation skills, motivation, and satisfaction were assessed after the presentations.
Interventions
Participants received a 25-minute structured training session on the Pecha Kucha presentation technique. The training included the purpose and principles of Pecha Kucha, the 20 × 20 format, automatic slide progression, visual slide preparation, timing, and presentation delivery. Participants then prepared and delivered a 25-minute PowerPoint presentation on an assigned health education topic, followed by a 6-minute 40-second Pecha Kucha summary consisting of 20 slides displayed for 20 seconds each.
Participants prepared and delivered a conventional 25-minute PowerPoint presentation on the assigned health education topic. No Pecha Kucha training was provided, and the Pecha Kucha presentation format was not used during the study.
