Mobile games are used as a powerful learning tool today. It is very useful as it allows students to work on their own frequently when necessary without the need for any physical environment or trainer and can be easily distributed among institutions. While the simulation laboratories established in a school can only be used by the students of that school, a game developed can be used by all students in the world who know that language. It is reported that breech presentation, which is one of the presentation disorders of the fetus, is the fourth or fifth most common indication for delivery by cesarean section. According to the midwifery national core curriculum in our country, vaginal breech delivery management training is given within the scope of risky birth course. However, it is known that teaching and learning the labor and delivery process of a breech-presented fetus is not easy. For this reason, it is thought that teaching vaginal breech delivery management by gamifying will be beneficial and it is important to investigate the effect of students playing this game on learning. Our study has two aims. Its primary purpose is; is to design a vaginal breech delivery management educational mobile game for midwifery students. The secondary aim is to evaluate the effect of the educational mobile game-supported teaching activity given to midwifery students about vaginal breech delivery within the scope of risky birth and postpartum period course. Real actors and simulation models were used to fake the scenario to be used in the game. A mobile game was prepared with the film shot. It was conducted with 10 volunteer students from Marmara University Health Sciences Faculty Midwifery Department 3rd grade students in order to determine whether there is any aspect of the mobile game that requires development. The mobile game, which was shaped and organized with the pilot application, was applied to the students in the 3rd grade play group of Kocaeli University Health Sciences Faculty Midwifery Department after single-blind randomization. Introductory features form, vaginal breech birth management knowledge test, course effectiveness evaluation form, general satisfaction level test about the course and vaginal breech birth management mobile game evaluation form were used to collect data.
