Abstract

Objectives In this study, it is important to teach nursing knowledge in order to train nurses, but it is also important for learners to find ways to acquire knowledge on their own and to be able to solve problems through daily creativity and information utilization skills. This study attempted to confirm the effects of action learning methods on problem-solving ability, information utilization ability, and everyday creativity.
 Methods The subjects of the study were 76 first-year students taking nursing informatics courses at a 4-year nursing school located in G Metropolitan City. This study was carried out from September 1, 2022 to October 30, 2022. with 76 nursing students assigned among 1st year students attending nursing department in G city. It was designed as a total of 6 programs through the action learning teaching learning method, and was measured using problem solving ability, information literacy ability and every creativity measurement tools. The collected data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, paired t-test and Cronbach's α coefficient using the SPSS 26.0 program.
 Results There was no effect on improving problem-solving ability (2.46±0.52, p=.210) and every creativity (3.75±0.48, p=.270) of nursing students after the action learning teaching learning method, but information literacy (3.72±0.47, p=.027) improved. It was effective in the sub-areas of problem-solving ability, divergent thinking (t=2.24, p=.027), execution and risk taking (t=2.24, p=.027), and the sub-area of information literacy ability(t=2.24, p=.027), information retrieval(t=2.58, p=.011) and creative flexibility (t=-2.19, p=.030), a subarea of everyday creativity.
 Conclusions It is necessary to develop various contents of nursing informatics classes using the action learning teaching learning method of nursing students, apply and repeat research, and verify the effectiveness of classes by applying various grades and subjects, and a longitudinal study on the effect of applying action learning classes.
