Özet
Objective: The study aimed to explore the experiences, expectations, and suggestions of undergraduate nursing students regarding a health education seminar on technology addiction. Method: This is a qualitative descriptive study. A convenience sample of undergraduate nursing students who had organized and actively participated in a health education seminar about Technology Addiction conducted in a public high school in Istanbul was asked to participate in the study. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with six nursing students in the fifth semester of a four-year nursing degree program who were accepted to participate in the study. Thematic content analysis was used. Results: Two themes; (1) Reflections on the health education seminar and (2) Reflections on the role of nurses as health educators, and seven sub-themes were identified: seminar preparation process, feelings regarding practice as a nurse educator, raising community awareness, preparation for the future, difficulties in working as a group, importance of the nurse’s role as an educator and deficiencies in health education in nursing practice. Conclusion: The health education seminar on technology addiction not only revealed challenges but also had significant positive impacts on the academic and professional development of nursing students. The emphasized positive effects underscore the ongoing importance of innovative educational initiatives that not only address contemporary health challenges but also promote the personal and professional growth of future nurses.
