The Effect of Podcast Use on Waste Management on Nursing Students'

This study will be conducted to measure the effect of podcast use on waste management on nursing students' knowledge and satisfaction. The study was planned as a randomized controlled pretest-posttest study. The study sample will consist of 100 first-year students (50: Control; 50: Intervention) enrolled in the 2025-2026 Spring semester at Necmettin Erbakan University Faculty of Nursing. The study is planned to be conducted in February-March 2026 during the Spring semester of the 2025-2026 academic year. Data will be collected from first-year nursing students in a face-to-face classroom setting. Data will be collected using a "Personal Information Form," a "Waste Management Knowledge Test," and a "Satisfaction with Teaching Methods Survey." The data obtained from the study will be analyzed in a computer environment using SPSS (Statistical Package for the Social Sciences) version 22.0 (IBM Corp., Armonk, NY, USA). Data will be evaluated using descriptive statistics. The Kolmogorov-Smirnov test will be used to assess data for normal distribution. If data are normally distributed, the Independent Samples t-test will be used to compare two independent groups, the Paired Samples t-test will be used to compare two dependent groups, and the Pearson correlation will be used to compare the relationships between scales. If data are not normally distributed, the Mann-Whitney U test will be used to compare two groups.
