ÖZET
 Amaç: Araştırma, hemşirelik eğitiminde kullanılan iki farklı öğretim yönteminin standardize hasta uygulamasına nasıl yansıdığını ortaya koymaya yönelik hemşirelik öğrencilerinin görüşlerini belirlemeyi amaçlamaktadır. Gereç ve Yöntemler: Deneysel desende ve Şubat 2018-Nisan 2018 tarihleri arasında gerçekleştirilen araştırmanın evrenini 1. sınıfta öğrenim gören 172 lisans hemşirelik öğrencisi oluşturmaktadır. Araştırmadaki öğrenci sayısı, Power analizi yapılarak ve basit rastgele sayılar tablosu kullanılarak randomizasyon yöntemi ile işbirlikli öğretim (n=30) ve geleneksel öğretim grubu (n=30) olarak belirlenmiştir. İşbirlikli öğretim grubu öğrencileri işbirlikli öğretim yöntemi ile hazırlanarak uygulamayı akranı ile birlikte, geleneksel öğretim grubu öğrencileri ise geleneksel öğretim yöntemi ile hazırlanarak uygulamayı tek başına gerçekleştirmiştir. Veriler 'Tanımlayıcı Özellikler Formu' ve 'Standardize Hasta Uygulaması Değerlendirme Formu' kullanılarak toplanmıştır. Veriler tanımlayıcı istatistikler ile sunulmuş ve verilerin gruplar arası karşılaştırmasında ki-kare testi kullanılmıştır. Bulgular: Standardize hasta uygulamasında her iki gruptaki öğrencilerin kendilerini heyecanlı ve gergin hissettikleri, ancak işbirlikli öğretim grubunun diğer gruba göre daha az heyecanlandığı (p<0,001) ve akranı ile birlikte uygulama yapmanın heyecanı azaltarak öğrencilere güven verdiği belirlenmiştir. İşbirlikli öğretim grubu beceri gerçekleştirme düzeylerini geleneksel öğretim grubuna göre daha iyi ve akıcı olarak değerlendirmiştir (p<0,001). Standardize hasta uygulamasının olumlu yönleri konusunda, işbirlikli öğretim grubunda uygulamalara yönelik özgüveni arttırma (p=0,012), geleneksel öğretim grubunda ise uygulamadaki eksikleri fark etme (p<0,001) görüşleri istatistiksel olarak anlamlı şekilde daha yüksek düzeyde belirtilmiştir. Her iki gruptaki öğrencilerin çoğunluğu uygulamaya yönelik olumlu görüş belirtmiştir. Sonuç: Standardize hasta uygulamasında kullanılan işbirlikli öğretim yöntemi geleneksel öğretim yöntemiyle karşılaştırıldığında, öğrencilerin heyecanlarının azaltılması ve daha yüksek düzeyde beceri gerçekleştirme performansı sergilemelerinde etkili olduğu saptanmıştır. Hemşirelik eğitiminde işbirlikli öğretim yöntemi ve standardize hasta uygulamalarına daha fazla yer verilmesi önerilmektedir.

ABSTRACT
 Objective: Study aims to determine the views of nursing students to reveal how two different teaching methods used in nursing education are reflected in standardized patient practice. Material and Methods: Experimental study was carried out in February 2018-April 2018 with 172 undergraduate nursing students studying in first class. The number of students was determined as cooperative teaching (n=30) and traditional teaching group (n=30) by using power analysis and randomization using simple random numbers table. Cooperative teaching group were prepared with cooperative teaching method and carried out application with their peers. While, traditional teaching group were prepared with traditional method and carried out application alone. Data were collected using 'Descriptive Characteristics Form' and 'Standardized Patient Application Evaluation Form'. The data were presented with descriptive statistics and chi-square test was used to compare the data between groups. Results: The students in both groups felt excited and nervous during practice, but cooperative teaching group felt less excited than other group (p<0.001) and practicing with their eers reduced excitement and increased confidence. Cooperative teaching group evaluated their level of performing skills better and more fluently than traditional teaching group (p<0,001). Regarding the positive aspects of standardized patient practice, the opinions about increasing self-confidence in the cooperative teaching group (p=0.012) and noticing the deficiencies in the application in the traditional teaching group (p<0.001) were statistically significantly higher. The majority of studentsin both groups expressed positive opinions about practice. Conclusion: Cooperative teaching method used in standardized patient practice is effective in reducing students' excitement and increased performance in performing skills. It is recommended that giving more place to cooperative teaching method and standardized patient practices in nursing education.
