This mixed-methods study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of workshop-integrated Outcome-Based Education (OBE) implemented within a Project Planning Course on nursing students' critical thinking motivation and individual innovativeness. The intervention combines outcome-oriented learning objectives with innovation-focused workshop activities, enabling students to develop research projects or patent/utility model proposals through collaborative and experiential learning.
A total of 50 third-year nursing students will participate in the study. Students enrolled in the Project Planning Course will form the intervention group, while students taking other elective courses will serve as the control group. Quantitative data will be collected before and after the course using validated measures of critical thinking motivation and individual innovativeness. In addition, semi-structured interviews will be conducted with students in the intervention group to explore their experiences and perceptions of the workshop-based learning process.
The findings are expected to provide evidence on the effectiveness of innovation workshop-integrated Outcome-Based Education in fostering critical thinking, innovation skills, and professional development among nursing students.
