The development of independent thinking skills in students is fundamental for their academic success and personal growth. This study investigates how independent work assignments can contribute to the enhancement of students’ independent thinking. Using a mixed-methods approach, this research examines student surveys, instructor feedback, and assessment results to evaluate the impact of independent work on critical thinking skills. Findings reveal that well-structured independent tasks promote higher-order cognitive skills, such as problem-solving, analysis, and decision-making. The study concludes with recommendations for incorporating independent tasks into academic curricula to foster self-reliance and critical thinking among students.
