The Six Thinking Hats group (n=30) received traditional training and Six Thinking Hats training. The video group (n=30) received traditional training and video training.

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Experimental: Six Thinking Hats Group

2\. Subcutaneous insulin administration was explained with the traditional training model. 3\. The Six Thinking Hats technique and how it is used was then explained in detail to the students. Any points that were not fully understood were explained again so that the technique was thoroughly reinforced. 4\. The researchers had made hats from different coloured card. All the students wore all the hats in turn and were asked the questions related to that colour hat as stated above (semi-structured questionnaire 1-6). 5\. The responses given by the students to the questions were audio-recorded. Each interview lasted 30 mins.

BEHAVIORAL

Other: Video Group

2\. Subcutaneous insulin administration was explained with the traditional training model. 3\. Then by scanning the QR code from the nursing practice skills textbook(Aylaz \& Yakıncı, 2024), the researchers provided the link for the students to watch the insulin application video. 4\. Without mentioning hat colours or the Six Thinking Hats method to this group, the questions on the semi-structured questionnaire were asked, and the interviews, each lasting 30 mins, were audio-recorded. 5\. After completing the video training, the mid-test data were collected by applying the Subcutaneous Insulin Application Skill Level Observation Form during administration of insulin to a dummy.
