This study was carried out to investigate how grade level and experiences when taking courses affect the creativity of engineering students in a Korean college. The sample group consisted of 372 engineering students of which 49.5% were first graders, 15.6% second graders, 22.6% third graders, and 12.4% fourth graders. They conducted self-report measures on a domain-general and domain-specific view of creativity. The engineering creativity test, developed by Kang and Yune (2015), is based on the domain-specific view of creativity and consists of four sub-factors: creative attitude, knowledge research, interest in engineering, and team work ability. The domain-general creativity test consists of three sub-factors. Analysis of the results led to the following conclusions: First, we found significant differences in engineering creativity between students depending on experiences in taking courses and tests; and, second, we discovered significant differences in integrative creativity among students depending on experiences in taking courses and tests, and/or grade level. These conclusions suggest that we should develop and apply appropriate strategies to enhance creativity in engineering education.

Tests of intrinsic-extrinsic motivation, self-efficacy, and creativity were administered to 75 college students. Results were analyzed by Pearson's correlation, partial correlation and Barron and Kenny's(1986) model. The main results were that (1) creativity was positively correlated with intrinsic motivation and negatively correlated with extrinsic motivation. (2) Self-efficacy played an important mediating role in the relationship between extrinsic motivation and creativity, but not in the relationship between intrinsic motivation and creativity, suggesting that extrinsic motivation negatively affects creativity because it lowers self-efficacy, which is intimately related with creativity. (3) The negative effect of extrinsic motivation on creativity was explained by such sub-factors of self-efficacy as self-confidence and preference for difficult tasks, but not by self-regulatory efficacy.

This research used Q-Methodology to investigate kindergarten teachers' perception style regarding children's creativity. The 30 participants had various teaching experiences and educational backgrounds and were teaching in a variety of types of kindergartens in the cities of Busan and Ulsan. Individual teacher's subjective perspective was the main target for the analysis. Results showed four types of teachers' perceptions of creativity : 1) perceiving creativity as children's creative thinking ability, 2) focusing on creative curriculum development 3) perceiving creativity as children's creative personality, and 4) focusing on either teacher's thorough understanding of children's creativity or teachers' creativity. These results indicate that teachers tend to perceive creativity in narrow and specific domains. These findings are discussed with respect to their educational implications.

In the present study I developed the test for earth scientific creativity level and verified means to measure scientific creativity. I developed 22 test items and after being examined by science education specialist, 11 items were finally established, and these were applied to 104 middle students. Each answer paper was graded according to the standard answer that I developed and the results of analysis are as follows. First, to verify the validity of measuring means I figured out content validity. The content validity about test items and adequacy of evaluation goal was examined by 1 science education specialist and 3 middle school science teachers, 6 education graduate students. As a result of validity verification, the content validity was 82.7% and it showed that the test of earth scientific creativity was valid for evaluation goal and sub-factors of creativity. Second, to verify reliability of measuring means, I analyzed internal consistency of the test sheet of earth scientific creativity after finding correlation coefficient and Cronbach's $\alpha$. Cronbach's $\alpha$, the internal reliability coefficient, was 0.848. Therefore, it was verified that this test sheet of earth scientific creativity is reliable to measure the creativity of the middle school students. The correlation between sub-factors of creativity was statistically significant, and for the relation between the variables related to creativity, the originality was the most significant. This shows that in the procedure of scientific creativity and studying science, originality should be the most important factor.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the implicit knowledge of creativity and education practice of creativity perceived by undergraduate students. Participants were 425 undergraduate students from around the greater metropolitan area of Seoul. The results of this study were as follows: (1) Most undergraduate students considered creativity as creative thinking or creative product rather than creative personality and creative environment. Undergraduate students placed originality as the most important subfactor of creativity. Scientists were ranked as the most creative people, followed by executives, and then artists. Interestingly contemporary Korean undergraduate students recognized and evaluated creativity as positive. (2) Most undergraduate students recognized the needs and importance of creativity-fostered education. These aspects of education have meaningful differences according to gender, as female students viewed creativity-fostered education more important. (3) Undergraduate students considered creative persons to be imaginative, independent, and confident. The most important part of developing undergraduate students' creativity was to make more creative environments. It has been suggested that the benefit of creative environments should be taken into consideration when developing creativity-enhancing programs and education for undergraduate students more generally.

본 연구에서는 예비초등교사의 '과학 창의성'과 '과학 창의성 교육'에 대한 인식의 연관성을 틀 내 및 틀 간 창의성을 중심으로 탐색하였다. 틀 내 창의성은 패러다임 내에서 작동하는 이론적 창의성과 실험적 창의성으로 구분되고, 틀 간 창의성을 패러다임의 변화를 가져오는 이론적 창의성을 의미한다. 자료 수집은 심층 면담으로 이루어졌으며, 분석은 틀 내 및 틀 간 범주를 토대로 수행되었다. 연구결과, 예비초등교사들은 주로 틀 내 창의성의 관점에서 '과학 창의성'을 인식하고 있었다. 또한 이들은 '과학 창의성'을 틀 내 창의성 관점에서 실험적 창의성과 이론적 창의성의 관점에서 다양하게 생각하고 있었다. 반면 예비초등교사들은 '과학 창의성 교육'은 틀 내 실험적 창의성의 관점에서 가능하다고 인식하고 있었다. 이러한 결과를 바탕으로 과학 교육에서 고려할 수 있는 과학 창의성의 특성과 이를 위한 과학교육의 방향에 대해서 논의하고자 한다.

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.
