Effect of creativity training on teaching for creativity for nursing faculty in Taiwan: A quasi-experimental study

A Nursing Innovation Workshop to Improve Clinical Nurses' Innovation Ability: a Quasi-experimental Study

“…After 12 hours of participation in the workshop with different themes in theoretical training, participants could recognize the concept of nursing innovation and basic steps. In the practice courses, the participants could give full play to their subjective initiatives to identify problems in nursing practice and use creative thinking strategies to create prototypes of the devices they envisioned with the help of the workshop members [11]. In addition, the workshop adopted diverse training methods, such as participatory methods and case discussions, to encourage team members to actively participate in thinking and discussing questions to promote the participants' learning and cultivate innovative thinking [29].…”

“…Nurses are critical thinkers on the front lines of care delivery who often innovate by identifying more e cient processes or repurposing items for alternate uses; they are therefore uniquely positioned to improve clinical practice through such ideas [6,7]. Fostering innovative nursing ability could improve medical service quality, increase job productivity, improve the effectiveness of treatment, reduce healthcare costs while satisfying the needs of patients, improve the effectiveness of care services, improve access to healthcare services and simplify the process involved in delivering such services [1,[8][9][10][11].…”

Nursing innovation workshop to improve clinical nurses’ innovation ability and research ability: A quasi-experimental study

“…After 12 hours of participation in the workshop with different themes in theoretical training, participants could recognize the concept of nursing innovation and basic steps. In addition, cultivating innovative design thinking can also promote scienti c research thinking and critical thinking (11). In practice courses, participants could give full play to their subjective initiatives to identify problems in nursing practice and use creative thinking strategies to create prototypes of the devices they envisioned with the help of the workshop members (11).…”

From creativity to innovation

“…For example, the Community Innovation Survey (CIS) -a questionnaire developed by Eurostat to investigate organizations' innovation activities in 19 countries -revealed that in 57% of firms that they deemed as 'innovative', engaged in innovation-related training activities (OECD, 2010). Also in higher education, creativity training -executed as either distinct course segments or workshops -has been developed for almost every student population including, for example, psychology students (Vally et al, 2019), nursing students (Liu, Wang, Chen, & Chao, 2020), engineering students (Zhou, 2012), and business students (Ritter, Gu, Crijns, & Biekens, 2020).…”
