The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate whether virtual reality (VR)-based education improves nursing students' knowledge and skill levels related to subcutaneous injection. The study will include first-year nursing students. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does the use of virtual reality technology increase knowledge about subcutaneous injection compared to traditional education? Does virtual reality training enhance practical skill performance in subcutaneous injection? Researchers will compare a VR-based education group (Intervention Group) with a traditional education group (Control Group) to see if VR education leads to greater improvements in knowledge and skill acquisition. Participants will: Complete a knowledge test, a skill test, and a demographic data form before and after the training. In the Intervention Group, watch a video on subcutaneous injection using VR glasses. In the Control Group, receive standard education using traditional teaching methods. Undergo knowledge and skill assessment following the educational interventions.
