Intervention

The students in the experimental group were shared the digital stories prepared for drug applications from the WhatsApp group and were asked to watch them for two weeks. Students were able to watch the stories on their mobile phones at the time and frequency they wanted. During 2 weeks, the researchers met with the students twice in the classroom environment and received feedback on the digital stories. Feedbacks about the real meaning of the stories and their contribution to education were obtained by using discussion and question-answer methods. Each student explained their opinions about the stories and had the opportunity to think deeply about them by receiving feedback from their classmates.
