Intercreativity is a phenomenon with significant social, cultural and educational implications in the postdigital era. Its meaning refers to the fact of solving problems and making a collective production. However--in a historical and philosophical context that has led to the rise and importance of knowledge production--intercreativity is a…

The aim of this paper is to ascertain the main subject qualities in Junior Cycle (JC) Visual Art (VA) in The Republic of Ireland, and whether these qualities are unique to the subject. The context of JC VA education is outlined through the exploration of its values, aims and objectives as well as investigating the subject's unique qualities. A…

In this article, we show how students' productive struggle on a mathematical task can lead to collective mathematical creativity. We use observable (co)actions and interactions from a video record that features three Grade 6 students in a problem-solving session to document the emergence of collective creativity leading to a mathematical solution.…

Educators have a plethora of teaching methods that allow them to tailor the learning environment to meet students' needs. One novel instructional approach that has grown in popularity in U.S. higher education has been the flipped classroom approach, which has become a popular way to embrace a student-centered learning environment. Of the various…

The Spatial-Based Learning (SBL) model, developed in 2018, has evolved through the application of various spatial techniques. Its 21st-century emergence prompts an analysis of its impact on critical thinking. This study aims to examine SBL's impact using Quantum Geographic Information System (SBL-QGIS) on undergraduates' critical thinking.…

The study explored the impacts of the two-day Living LAB urban regeneration idea camp, which enhanced college students' divergent thinking skills and creative self-efficacy. Quantitative and qualitative empirical data were obtained from 35 camp participants from three universities in Korea. The quantitative results of the study revealed that camp…

Using question 28 from the May Problems to Ponder in volume 114, the author and her seventh- and eighth-grade students launched into a discussion of creativity, linearity, piecewise, and recursive definitions of functions. This pattern to ponder provided rich mathematical opportunities for all students in her middle school classroom.

Due to the structured format of most engineering courses, the number of opportunities for engineering students to view matters differently from the traditional ways is limited. Therefore, a mandatory requirement was introduced into three engineering courses for students to propose an out of the ordinary solution to certain technical problems,…

Collaborative creativity is an essential skill for unleashing university students' skills in team building during complex problem-solving. The aim of this descriptive quantitative research was to examine undergraduate students' perspectives regarding their collaborative creativity experience as game creators for a gamification group assignment…

This study investigates the effects of using design thinking on students' problem solving and creativity skills, applying a constructivist learning theory. A course where students use design thinking for analyzing real problems and proposing a solution, was evaluated. The study involved 910 novice university students from different disciplines who…

We discuss classroom activity comprised of small groups of students collaboratively tinkering with programs of dynamically manipulable figural models, posing problems regarding their mathematical properties and behaviors. We analyzed data from students' discourse taken from two classroom interventions employing a framework of creative mathematical…

In 2020 Pakistan's first-ever hackathon on school emergencies was organised, where schools and community stakeholders collaborated to deconstruct problems and develop solutions. The study aimed to investigate participants' motivation for and experiences of the hackathon. Qualitative and quantitative data were collected from hackers, mentors,…

The purpose of this article is to introduce collective musical cognition as a mode for developing diagnostic critical thinking in music at all levels of the educational continuum--kindergarten through graduate school. It defines and illustrates how collective musical cognition is influenced by relevance, dialogue, and reflection as social and…

Promoting mathematical creativity is an important aim of mathematics education, which may be promoted by engaging students with open-ended tasks. Most studies of students' creativity have investigated the creativity of students working individually. This study concerns the mathematical creativity of students working as individuals as compared with…

Translational medicine (TM) is an interdisciplinary branch of biomedicine that bridges the gap from bench-to-bedside to improve global health. Fundamental TM skills include interdisciplinary collaboration, communication, critical thinking, and creative problem-solving (4Cs). TM is currently limited in undergraduate biomedical education programs,…
