Abstract
This study aims to investigate the Convergence effects of a class using action learning on 4C core competencies of college students. A survey was conducted before and after the action learning class with the same questionnaire for some dental hygiene students in Busan. The collected data were analyzed by using the paired t-test with SPSS 24.0 program. As a result of comparing communication ability, critical thinking propensity, creative problem-solving ability, and cooperative self-efficacy scores, the score of each area after the class was higher compared to before the class, and significant outcomes were shown in the sub-factors as well(p<0.001). In conclusion, it was found that the class using action learning affects the 4C core competencies required. It is urgent to change the teaching method to self-directed learning rather than knowledge-oriented learning.
