摘要:
本研究旨在探討設計思考融入創意教學課程對師培生創造傾向、創意教學自我效能和設計思考力之影響。研究對象為臺灣北部某所科技大學選修創意教學策略之28位師培生,採用單一樣本前、後測設計進行18週之教學實驗,以「創造傾向量表」、「創意教學自我效能量表」以及「設計思考力量表」作為研究工具。透過量化資料進行描述性統計分析及相依樣本t檢定分析,探討創造傾向、創意教學自我效能和設計思考力前後測之差異,並於課後進行半結構式訪談,深入瞭解師培生之學習經驗和想法。研究結果發現,將設計思考融入創意教學課程有助於提升師培生之創造傾向(冒險性、好奇心、想像力)、創意教學自我效能(正向信念、負向自覺、抗壓信念)和設計思考力(縝密性、計畫性、完成性、創新性、周詳性和系統性)。最後,根據上述之研究結果提出對未來研究以及實施以設計思考為核心的創意教學課程之建議。

關鍵詞:設計思考、設計思考力、創造傾向、創意教學自我效能

    Abstract:
    Introduction
    Creativity has recently become an increasingly prominent research topic in the field of education. Teachers play an indispensable role in enhancing students’ creative performance. Therefore, strategies for stimulating preservice teachers’ motivation for creative teaching and for encouraging teachers to integrate and apply creative teaching skills and methods into curricula have been extensively discussed in the field of teacher education. The literature indicates that teachers’ creative teaching self-efficacy is essential for the implementation of creative teaching; teachers with higher creative teaching self-efficacy engage more in creative teaching behaviors. Hence, methods for enhancing preservice teachers’ creative teaching self-efficacy warrant further exploration. The emergence of design thinking has introduced new educational frameworks and thinking patterns. Design thinking strongly emphasizes the adoption of human-centered approaches, which involve observing and empathizing with real-life situations to explore underlying issues, and the iterative modification of prototypes through testing to develop solutions that optimally meet user needs. In education, design thinking entails a teacher’s ability to solve problems innovatively through a series of lesson plan designs, executions, revisions, and innovations before actual teaching. Accordingly, the aim of this study was to investigate whether the integration of the design thinking steps namely empathize, define, ideate, prototype, and test— into creative teaching courses can promote preservice teachers’ creative tendencies, creative teaching self-efficacy, and design thinking skills.
    Literature Review
    Design thinking involves five key steps: empathize, define, ideate, prototype, and test. The first step (empathize) requires designers to identify user needs by learning about their thoughts and feelings through interviews and observations. The second step (define) entails breaking down and summarizing the information gathered in the first step to further establish user needs. The third step (ideate) encourages designers to brainstorm systematically and generate various ideas. The fourth step (prototype) involves filtering and concretizing ideas generated during the third step to propose test plans for user experience, interaction, and dialog. The final step (test) entails refining solutions by gathering user feedback through the test plans proposed during the fourth step. Recent studies integrating design thinking into education have reported a strong correlation between design thinking processes and creativity. This teaching approach empowers teachers with problem-solving abilities and confidence in creativity; thus, design thinking is an effective method for addressing teaching challenges.
    The study’s variables are explained as follows: Creative tendencies refer to an individual’s personality traits exhibited during creative activities. Integrating creative thinking and problem-solving methods into curricula effectively enhances a student’s creative tendencies. Creative teaching involves incorporating creativity into teaching methods to stimulate and support students’ creative expression. Creative teaching self-efficacy refers to a teacher’s confidence in their ability to creatively teach and influence student learning outcomes. Teachers with higher creative teaching self-efficacy are more confident in implementing creative teaching practices. Design thinking skills refer to the ability to iteratively generate an extensive array of ideas and then narrow them to optimal options during product development. Such skills involve the continual experimentation, refinement, and resolution of existing problems or recommendation of innovative ideas on existing objects.
    This study integrated design thinking into creative teaching in order to encourage preservice teachers to identify topics for improvement and generate creative teaching plans through practical application. It further examined whether this integration can enhance teachers’ capabilities such as creative tendencies, creative teaching self-efficacy, and design thinking skills.
    Methods
    This study included 28 preservice teachers (14 men, 14 women) with an average (standard deviation) age of 20 (4.80) years. They volunteered to participate in the study and were divided into seven groups of four individuals each. Employing a single-group pre-/post-test design supplemented with qualitative data analysis, we conducted pre- and post-tests at the beginning and end of the semester, respectively. We assessed the participants’ creative tendencies, creative teaching self-efficacy, and design thinking skills by using Lin and Wang’s (1994) Williams Creative Tendency Scale (a revised version of F.E. Williams’ Creativity Assessment Packet), the Creative Teaching Self-Efficacy Scale compiled by Lin and Qiu (2008), and the Design Thinking Ability Scale developed by Xie (2012), respectively. Additionally, after the course concluded, two participants from each group were selected for a 40-min qualitative interview aimed at understanding their learning experiences and attitudes toward the integration of design thinking into creative teaching courses.
    Results
    This study analyzed all student metrics by using dependent-sample t-tests. The participants’ overall creative tendencies significantly differed between the pre- and post-test phases (t = 2.96, p < 0.01), indicating that integrating design thinking into creative teaching courses can enhance students’ overall creative tendencies. The participants’ creative teaching self-efficacy also differed significantly between the pre- and post-test phases (t = 5.84, p < 0.01), implying that integrating design thinking into creative teaching courses enhances preservice teachers’ overall creative teaching self-efficacy. Similarly, overall design thinking skills differed significantly between the pre- and post-test phases (t = 5.86, p < 0.01), signifying that integrating design thinking into creative teaching courses can enhance students’ design thinking skills.
    Discussion and Suggestions
    The results of this study imply that integrating design thinking into creative teaching courses can enhance preservice teachers’ creative tendencies, creative teaching self-efficacy, and design thinking skills. However, we also noted that during the teaching process, having students repeatedly brainstorm on the same topic led to difficulties in generating new ideas subsequently. Therefore, future research could provide students with flexible adjustments during the ideation stage, offering them different topics to practice various creative ideation strategies. Additionally, despite its positive results, this study did not explore the differences in variables between creative teaching courses incorporating design thinking and standard creative teaching courses. Accordingly, future research could include control groups to address this limitation.
