Each visual will contain one piece of information. The researchers will send 6 visuals to the students in the experimental group via text message every day for 4 weeks, except Saturdays and Sundays. The post-test will be applied immediately after the end of the implementation process. The messages will be short and contain a single piece of information.
Knowledge Measurement Questionnaire
The knowledge measurement questionnaire prepared by the researchers according to the curriculum of the related course consists of 133 questions in total. There are 'Yes' or 'No' choices in the questions. Out of 33 questions, those who give the correct answer will be scored as 1 and those who give the wrong answer will be scored as 0. The knowledge measurement questionnaire will be applied in pre-test and post-test. The pre-test will be applied just before the start of the study and the post-test will be applied just after the end of the implementation process.
