Abstract

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to construct the education applying the Havruta method for nursing students and to investigate the effects on self-directed learning ability, critical thinking, and learning commitment. Methods: A nonequivalent control group pre-posttest design was used. The participants were 63 nursing students (experimental group, n=31; control group, n=32) at two universities. The experimental group received education applying the Havruta method for five weeks. The study was conducted from September 1 to November 30, 2022. The data were analyzed using IBM SPSS 27.0 for an χ2 test, Fisher's exact test, independent t-test, and Mann-Whitney U-test. Results: The experimental group had a significant increase in self-directed learning ability (z=-2.13, p=.033). However, there was no significant difference in critical thinking competency (t=0.64, p=.524) and learning commitment (t=0.04, p=.969) between the two groups. Conclusion: The Havruta method is an effective nursing education tool for self-directed learning ability. The result of this study could be a guide for nursing professors in designing and implementing educational programs that apply the Havruta method. In the future, research that applies the Havruta method and evaluates its effectiveness in nursing education programs should be continued.
