摘要

This study investigated the effects of design thinking STEAM (DT-STEAM) education on artificial intelligence (AI) learning and creativity. A total of 59 university students enrolled in two courses as part of a teacher education program at a public university were recruited. A nonequivalent group pretest and posttest design was used to perform a teaching experiment. The main conclusions of the study were as follows: DT-STEAM instruction improved the breadth and depth of understanding of the AI concept, particularly in terms of relational connections, hierarchies, and cross-connections; DT-STEAM instruction had a positive effect on attitude toward AI, particularly the AI process; and DT-STEAM had a positive effect on AI design creativity in terms of elaboration, usability, values and, in particular, novelty.
