Maternal-fetal Health and Climate Change Awareness

Project Objective: The objective of this project is to examine the effect of an AI-powered video developed to increase awareness among midwifery students regarding the effects of climate change on maternal and fetal health, and to conduct a validity and reliability study of the Pregnancy-Specific Climate Change Awareness Scale on midwifery students. Project Objectives: * To increase midwifery students' awareness of the effects of climate change on maternal and fetal health, * To ensure midwifery students are aware of health risks associated with climate change, * To enable midwifery students to be more sensitive and knowledgeable in their future professional practice by being aware of the effects of climate change on health, * To create broader awareness in society about the effects of climate change on health through midwifery students, * To provide up-to-date and accurate information about climate change through AI-assisted videos, * To enable students to better understand the importance of the issue by interacting with AI-assisted videos and making the subject engaging, * To contribute to the literature by conducting a validity and reliability study of the Pregnancy-Specific Climate Change Awareness Scale for midwifery students, * To scientifically demonstrate the effect of AI-assisted videos on permanent learning, motivation, and awareness-raising compared to traditional educational approaches, * To create a scientific basis for the integration of AI-assisted education into future midwifery education programs, * To obtain research findings. The aim is to share the results within the scientific community by presenting them at international and national scientific events (such as congresses, conferences, and symposia) and to publish them as scientific articles in international journals.
