With leadership and speciality, creativity is cutting a fine figure among major values of human resource in 21C knowledge-based society. In the 7th school curriculum much emphasis is put on the importance of creativity by pursuing the image of human being based on creativity based on basic capabilities'. Also creativity is one of major factors of giftedness, and developing one's creativity is the core of the program for gifted education. Doing mathematics requires high order thinking and knowledgeable understandings. Thus mathematical creativity is used as a measure to test one's flexibility, and therefore it is the basic tool for creativity study. But theoretical study for mathematical creativity is not common. In this paper, we discuss mathematical creativity applied to 6 approaches suggested by Sternberg and Lubart in educational theory. That is, mystical approaches, pragmatical approaches, psycho-dynamic approaches, cognitive approaches, psychometric approaches and scio-personal approaches. This study expects to give useful tips for understanding mathematical creativity and understanding recent research results by reviewing various aspects of mathematical creativity.

The STEAM education and the computer science education have become increasingly important with the advert of science technology that enhances the national competitiveness. The purpose of the research is to develop the STEAM education program focused on programming education. I introduced a programming activity utilizing a sensor that can trigger students' interest with relation to other school subject factors. I applied the education program to grade 4-5 students, then compared and analyzed effects of the education program by conducting pretest and posttest regarding the creativity, reasoning skills, and the affective domain in science learning. Overall, the analysis reveals that the STEAM education program developed in this study improved fluency, originality and creativity index of the students' creativity, reasoning skills and scientific attitudes.

The purpose of this study is to develop a software education program using micro:bit based on the ADDIE development model and to analyze the effects of the development of creativity of elementary school students. The education program was developed based on the results of the pre-demand analysis conducted on 40 elementary school teachers in Jeju. In order to verify the effectiveness of the developed education program, 42 students who participated in the education donation program conducted by ${\bigcirc}{\bigcirc}$ University were enrolled in 24 hours for 7 days for 6 days. The results of the analysis show that the software education program developed in this study has positive effects on the creativity factors by improving the programming ability of elementary school students.

In this study, we developed the activity program for data visualization utilizing scratch and applied it to preliminary coding instructors and then verified its effect. The activity program was developed based on the procedure of ADDIE model based on the result of preliminary requirement analysis conducted for 20 teachers of computer elementary school incumbent primary school. The developed program was organized by "${\bigcirc}{\bigcirc}$Center for Creative Economy and Innovation" and a total of 21 hours set lectures and practical training for 4 weeks for 3 hours each 3 times per week in "Youth Coding Project" held at "${\bigcirc}{\bigcirc}$University" It applied to time. Application of the program In order to verify the effect on creativity, Torrance Tests of Creative Thinking Figures A and B were introduced and pre- and post tests were carried out. As a result of the verification, it was found that the educational program developed in this research is effective for improving the creativity of the preliminary coding instructors.

In this study, we developed the google spreadsheet education program which focuses on the education data visualization. And we applied it to forth and fifth grade students, and then verified its effect. The developed program was applied to 29 forth and fifth grade students for 36 classes in six days. Application of the program In order to verify the effect on creativity, Torrance Tests of Creative Thinking Figures A and B were introduced and pretests and post tests were carried out. As a result of the verification, it was found that the google spreadsheet education program which focuses on the education data visualization has positive effects on the creativity factors of the elementary school forth and fifth grade students.

This study was designed to examine the effects of integrated physical expressive activities on creativity in young children. Subjects of this study were 38 preschoolers at the age of 4 who consisted of both the experimental group of 18 children and the control group of 20 children. To measure the creativity of young children, this study adopted Figural Test A of Torrance Test of Creative Thinking (TTCT) as pre-and post-tests with both experimental and control group. The results showed that effects of integrated physical expressive activities varied by sub-dimensions of creativity; children's participation in integrated physical expressive activities was effective to improve openness, abstractness of titles, and elaboration even if overall creativity and fluency increased after their program participation. Also, originality was the only sub-dimension that was not improved. It implied that integrated physical expressive activities have partial positive effects on some sub-dimensions of creativity.

The purpose of this study is to develop the number-operation games and to analyze the effects of the games on mathematical creativity of gifted elementary students. We set up the basic direction and standard of mathematical gifted creativity program and developed the 10 periods games based on the mathematically gifted creative problem solving(MG-CPS) model. And, to find out the change of students' creativity, the test based on the developed program and one group pretest-posttest design was conducted on 20 gifted students. Analysis of data using Leikin's evaluation model of mathematical creativity with Leikin's scoring and categorization frame revealed that gifted students's creativity is improved via the number-operation games.

This study examined the meaning of creativity of children and teachers from two novice early childhood teachers' perspectives. Each novice early childhood teacher implemented a creative education program in her classroom for 16 weeks after getting a teacher training about children's creativity. At the end of each session of creative education program, each teacher had an evaluation time and wrote their reflective journals. Date sources were reflective journals, in-depth interviews, and several artifacts. The findings were as follows; 1) The meaning of children's creativity related to children's personal characteristics, such as thinking and acting differently as well as engaging fully in their current play. 2) The meaning of teachers' creativity related to teacher's personal characteristics, such as escaping from task-oriented tendencies as well as implementing with inventive flexibility.

In the present study we have compared and analyzed three different measures of creativity in 135 gifted and 161 normal students to understand the nature of creativity and to propose the guideline for measuring creativity. The instruments used to measure creativity in this study are the Torrance Test of Creativity Thinking (TTCT), the Test of Creative Problem solving and Finding in Science (CPFS), and the Creative Behavior Checklist in Science (CBCS). The TTCT is the most widely used divergent thinking test and measures creativity in the aspect of domain-generality. The CPFS and the CBCS were developed for the purpose of this study and measure domain-specific creativity in the area of Science. The findings of this study revealed that gifted students are significantly more creative compared to normal students in all measures of creativity used in the study. The biggest difference between the gifted and normal students was found in the aspect of CPFS. This study implies that creativity, which is considered less useful to identify gifted students compared to achievement or IQ scores, is the important factor to consider for judging giftedness. The low correlations revealed among the TTCT, CPFS, and CBCS imply that the three measures of creativity address relatively different aspects of creativity. The results also suggest that it is essential to consider multiple criteria of creativity not to overlook potential creative students in the area of science. Implications of the study in connection with the identification and educational practices for gifted education program is discussed.
