ClinConnect Summary
This clinical trial is exploring how certain teaching methods, specifically "Funny Scenario-Based Learning" and "Mind Mapping," can help motivate undergraduate students to learn medical terminology. The researchers want to see if these fun and interactive approaches can make learning medical terms in English more engaging for students who are non-native speakers.
To participate in this study, you need to be a second-year student at Sakarya University's Faculty of Health Sciences and taking a medical terminology course for the first time. If you are an English second language speaker and meet these criteria, you could join the trial. Participants can expect to engage in creative learning activities designed to make studying medical terminology enjoyable and effective. This study is currently recruiting participants, and it aims to find out if these methods really make a difference in how motivated students feel about learning.
