While creativity anxiety has been found to have negative relationships with various creative outcomes, whether creativity anxiety would also negatively influence creative cognitive styles (i.e. idea generation; idea selection) and the mechanisms underlying these impacts are still unknown. Based on the Self-Efficacy Theory (SET) and the Dual…

Education in the modern era requires students to have high creative skills to face the challenges of a complex world. However, the lack of teaching learning models that foster students' creativity is a common problem in classroom learning. This research aims to explore the impact of the STEM-DT (Science, Technology, Engineering, and…

This study investigates the effectiveness of siproman digital comics as a learning medium to enhance critical and creative thinking skills in biology, specifically on the human reproductive system. Recognizing the importance of these skills in the 21st century and their current low levels among students, this research employed Educational Design…

Students may not express their creativity uniformly, across all settings and under all conditions. Creativity is sensitive to expected evaluations, for example, and likely to vary when the individual is alone, in a small group, or in a large group. Quite a bit of research has demonstrated that certain conditions can be created to support creative…

Divergent thinking (DT) tests are sometimes used to select students for gifted programs. Studies on these tests, mostly conducted on non-gifted students, suggest that performance is influenced by the type of instruction given (standard vs. hybrid "be fluent AND original") and time-on-task. The current study aimed to examine the effect of…

The ability to think critically and creatively is a capability that must be possessed by student in this century. This ability is needed to adjust to changes, it takes habit in bringing up new ideas to solve various problems that occur.
