Exploring the Technological Factors Affecting Creativity in Computational Thinking-centered Learning Context
Authors: , ,
Abstract: The attempt of applying technology in education has started with ICT education and spread into e-learning, u-learning, m-learning and SMART learning in Korea. Computational Thinking is crucially needed as the center of educational environmental change. Although educational circumstances are expected to change dramatically in the near future, the theoretical consideration on the effect of applying educational technology towards creativity is rare. Therefore, we have explored some technological factors affecting creativity in the context of computational thinking-centered learning which is referred to as SMART learning. 67 subjects participated in the survey exploring the technological factors of SMART learning. Throughout the study, 4 technological factors such as technological self-efficacy, cooperativity, resource free and interactivity were revealed as main factors affecting student’s creativity.
