The purpose of this study was to confirm the effect of the Havruta-based teaching and learning method on the academic self-efficacy, critical thinking tendency, learning satisfaction, and academic stress of nursing students. This study was conducted with 90 2nd graders of nursing department with one-group pretest-posttest design. The Havruta-based instructional design consists of five stages: the 1 stage is the pre-learning stage, the 2 stage is the introduction and development stage, the 3 stage is the organization of the class content, the 4 stage is the question and teaching stage, and the 5 stage is organized and integrated. Four weeks of Havruta-based teaching and learning method was applied. The data were analyzed by SPSS 25.0. The general characteristics of the subjects were frequency and percentage, and The dependent variable for measuring the effect of experimental treatment was analyzed by paired t-test. As a result of the study, the application of the Havruta-based teaching and learning method showed statistically significant results on academic self-efficacy(t=-3.711, p<.000), learning satisfaction(t=-2.580, p=.012), and academic stress(t=6.500, p<.000). The Havruta-based teaching and learning method has been confirmed to be an effective teaching method that increases the subject's academic self-efficacy, learning satisfaction, and lowers academic stress, so it can be applied to other major subjects in the future.

In this research, two careers connectable with the contents of the curriculum of fifth to sixth grade elementary school students were selected among other promising future careers in biotechnology and medical engineering fields. 'Design-based promising future career STEAM program' was developed and its validity and effectiveness were verified. Reflecting recent issues, and complying with the STEAM standard (frame) instructional materials were developed through group deliberations for nine months, based on the achievement standards through an analysis of subject curriculum revised in 2009. This was prepared so that students are able to experience biotechnology and medical engineering related careers in a simulational form emphasized with creative design to make them prefer natural sciences and engineering careers and draw their interests and recognition of the relevant careers under the two disciplines. As a result of such application to STEAM Leader School students at the verification stage of the program, the contents and level of the program were verified suitable, receiving favorable reviews. And as a result of applying the developed program on other elementary school students, it was discovered that significant improvements were found in their career consciousness. Through this research, it was suggested that there is a need for a simplification of the curriculum content standards, a provision of 'standard for integration,' development of teachers' ability in reconstituting or organizing the STEAM and proceeding classes, continuous long-term support to see the effects of a policy or a program, and a reinforcement of career education integrated in the curriculum.
