Intervention model description: The students who were informed about the research, and after obtaining their individual consent, the Chemotherapy Symptom Management Knowledge Test , the Marmara Critical Thinking Dispositions Scale , and the Self-Directed Learning Skills Scale were administered using an online questionnaire. Chemotherapy symptom management training was conducted online for six weeks, one hour per week, for experiment and control groups. The research began with the control group to minimize the interaction between the students in the experiment and control groups. Then the experiment group practices were carried out after the control group's program was completed.
Primary purpose: SUPPORTIVE_CARE

Brief summary: Cancer is one of the major health problems facing Turkey and the world. One of the methods used to treat cancer is chemotherapy. During this treatment period, some side effects may develop in patients. These developing symptoms can be managed with effective nursing interventions, which in turn can increase the patient's quality of life. Managing these symptoms is among the responsibilities of the nurse. The nurses' ability to effectively manage the side effects of chemotherapy depends on gaining specific knowledge, attitudes, and skills during their vocational training and the development of problem-solving and critical thinking. The research was carried out to examine the effect of chemotherapy symptom management education based on the online flipped learning model on the achievement, critical thinking, and self-directed learning of nursing students.

Detailed description: Background: The online flipped learning method is an innovative learning approach that helps develop critical thinking and self-directed learning skills and increases students' interest in the course Aim: The research was carried out to examine the effect of chemotherapy symptom management education based on the online flipped learning model on the achievement, critical thinking, and self-directed learning of nursing students.

Methods: This research is a randomized controlled trial. The sample consisted of 68 students divided into experiment and control groups. The training program based on traditional learning was applied to the control group, online flipped learning was applied to the experiment group, and each group received training on chemotherapy symptom management for one hour per week for six weeks. The researchers evaluated the results by applying the Chemotherapy Symptom Management Knowledge Test (CSMKT), the Marmara Critical Thinking Dispositions Scale (MCTDS), and the Self-Directed Learning Skills Scale (SDLSS) to the control and experiment groups before, right after the training, and one month after the training.
