Summary

For nursing education to be sufficient to provide students with the contemporary roles required by the profession, education programs should be provided that will enable students to participate in the learning-teaching process actively. One of these programs is cooperative learning methods. The jigsaw learning technique, one of the collaborative learning methods, creates a contemporary learning model by providing a positive learning environment, individualization of students and the development of a sense of responsibility. Since distance education has become widespread worldwide, it is necessary to use these methods to increase interaction and group work in distance education.

Aim: This study aims to determine the effect of the Jigsaw technique used in critical article reviews given by distance education on the critical thinking disposition and communication skills of nursing students.
