Brief summary
This randomized controlled trial aims to determine the effect of an artificial intelligence (AI)-supported educational chatbot (OSCE Coach Platform) on nursing students' knowledge of gynecologic cancers and their self-reported clinical decision-making skills. Third-year undergraduate nursing students will be randomized into either an intervention group, utilizing the AI-supported chatbot, or a control group, receiving conventional education. Both groups will be assessed before and after the intervention.
Interventions
A custom web-based educational platform combining AI-supported virtual patient interaction with standardized case scenarios, predefined clinical tasks, and immediate rubric-based feedback.
