Data collection took place from September 1st to December 15th, 2020 from 25 college students at C University. The effect of 15 weeks of online Havruta teaching method was determined using a survey tool consisted of 169 questions, measuring general characteristics, critical thinking, communication ability, interpersonal competence, and problem solving ability. The collected data were analyzed using IBM SPSS WIN/25.0. For general characteristics, frequency, percentage, mean, and standard deviation were obtained, and Shapiro-Wilk test was conducted to verify the normality of the dependent variable. To verify the effectiveness of the class, the mean, standard deviation, and paired t-test were analyzed. There was a statistically significant difference in the scores before and after the critical thinking and communication ability of the subjects who applied the Havruta class, but there was no statistically significant difference in interpersonal competence and problem solving ability. In order to verify the correct effectiveness of the application of the online Havruta teaching method, it is necessary to verify the effectiveness and continuing effect of the teaching method by checking the results before, after(1), and after(2).
