영문 초록

This paper gave an account on a study of students' and teachers' perceptions of learning activities useful for fostering creativity. The participants were composed of 153 fourth graders (age: M = 9.6 years, SD = .8 year), 124 fifth graders (age: M = 10.9 years, SD = .4 year), 112 sixth graders (age: M = 11.9 years, SD = .3 year), 106 pre-service teachers (age: 20-30 years), and 95 in-service teachers (age: 20-50 years). On a 5-point Likert scale the participants rated the degree of usefulness of learning activities for fostering creativity. Cluster and multivariate analyses were employed to find out if the teacher perception was compatible to the student perception. Findings from the study suggested that there were differences between students' and teachers' views of activities useful for fostering creativity. To narrow the gap between students' and teachers' perceptions, the study alerted us of the importance to cultivate an interactive student-teacher learning culture in the classroom.
