Poor teaching quality indicates an unpleasant learning environment, tends to inherit knowledge that impacts the learning process as limited to tacit knowledge, and does not reach the explicit knowledge process, resulting in lower productivity and poor morale. This study aims to analyze the influence of instructional leadership on the competencies…

This study aims to understand students' views on project development in coding and robotics courses. Focusing on student study groups in this field seeks to provide a broad view using qualitative and quantitative methods. The study group consists of students taking the coding and robotics course. A semi-structured interview form developed by the…

Making engineering courses more diverse and inclusive has received increased support recently. The Include program aims to transform the academic environment in engineering to empower students who identify as neurodiverse; and, as part of the program, the statics course, a required course for all civil engineering majors, was redesigned based on…

International organisations have pressed countries to prepare students for the knowledge economy by building real-life competencies into national curricula, and the OECD's PISA has assessed competencies like collaboration and creative problem solving. But is there really a deficit in competencies that schools must address? This review of empirical…

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,…

An increase in research on the teaching of creativity in learning environments is being witnessed as more studies continue to reveal its effects on learning outcomes and academic achievement. Thus, any investigative attempt to examine the relevant approaches to teaching of creative thinking skills is appreciated within the creativity literature.…

This study aims to examine the relation between spatial ability and creativity in Geometry. Data was collected from 94 ninth graders. Three spatial abilities were investigated: spatial visualization, spatial relations and closure flexibility. As for students' creativity, it was examined through a multiple solution problem in Geometry focusing on…

Can creativity be taught? Multiple sources attest that the business community values creativity in potential new hires, but a signature pedagogy of teaching for creativity in business classes has not yet emerged. To contribute to a body of evidence-based practice, this study assessed the impact of several in-class activities that were deployed…

The aim of the present study is to analyze the relationship between the social skills and creativity of children aged between 7 and 11 years. 312 children, aged 7-11 years and their mothers were the participants of the present study. Torrance Tests of Creative Thinking (TToCT) Verbal and Nonverbal tasks fluency Form A was administered to the…

The aim of this survey design study was three-fold. First, to investigate the creative problem-solving attributes of high school students. Second, to examine whether any inter-relationships exist between subdimensions of creative problem-solving attributes. Third, to determine whether high school students' creative problem-solving attributes vary…

Creativity and problem-solving are 21st-century skills that we need to develop in our students. Research on computational thinking (CT) integration in school subjects and STEAM activities has shown a positive effect on students' problem-solving skills and creativity. Our study extends our previous work from the integration of CT in a mathematics…

The adoption of generative artificial intelligence (GAI) tools, such as ChatGPT, in higher education presents numerous opportunities and challenges. The use of GAI technologies in various fields, including education, has accelerated as technology develops. The widely used language model ChatGPT, developed by OpenAI, has become progressively more…

Purpose: Being "literate" is well established as key to active civic participation, right from the earliest years of life. Young children's natural curiosity and motivation to understand the world and their places within it through playful explorations offers rich opportunities for learning. Reported here are findings from a STEAM…

This research aimed to (1) investigate changes in attitudes towards learning STEM and coding, innovativeness, and entrepreneurial attitudes, and (2) synthesize characteristics and evaluate innovations to address problems after participating in an innovation camp for 180 early high school students. Activities included learning platforms to foster…

Most students practice abductive reasoning in solving mathematical problems that encourage creativity. This study analyses the process of making conjectures based on abductive reasoning. This study used a qualitative design and involved 106 undergraduate mathematics students enrolled in the mathematics course Introduction to Ring. We analyzed the…
