Abstract
This research is part of a comprehensive study exploring the experiences of learners enrolled in design-oriented creativity courses for undergraduates. Previous research employed qualitative methods, specifically grounded theory, to investigate the formation processes of learning experiences from the learner’s perspectives. This initiative aims to advance beyond existing research trends in Korea that evaluate learners from the perspectives of educators and researchers, seeking to establish a new theoretical model based on learner’s viewpoints. Additionally, the study intends to develop a scale that enables quantitative research by utilizing the theoretical model established through qualitative research. The scale’s development will facilitate the assessment of current design-oriented creativity courses through our theoretical model, providing valuable insights and inspiration for educators and researchers. This research distinguishes itself by attempting to create a quantitatively verifiable scale using a localized theoretical model developed through qualitative research, diverging from existing research trends. The results of future research are expected to provide essential data for establishing new creativity education models from a design perspective.
