Abstract

          The purpose of this study is to :(1) design and carry out the learning innovation based on design thinking to promote the creative thinking of freshmen majoring in film and television;  (2) To study the creative thinking ability of freshmen majoring in film and television before and after using design-based learning innovation;  (3) To investigate learners' satisfaction with design-based learning innovation.  The sample includes: (1) 6 experts in 3 aspects (2) 15 freshmen from a film and television university in China were randomly selected for practical teaching.  Research tools include :(1) theoretical framework record sheet and design framework record sheet;  (2)) expert questionnaire from three aspects: content, media and design;  (3) Before and after assessment of students' creative thinking ability (fluency thinking;  Thinking flexibility; Creative thinking; Detailed thinking); (4) Students' satisfaction with learning innovation questionnaire based on design thinking.  This study adopts the research method of Richy and kline (2007), which includes three stages: design, development and evaluation.

          The results show that: (1) The innovative learning environment based on design thinking is consistent with the theoretical framework record table and the design framework record table; (2) Both the pre-test and post-test of the four dimensions of creative thinking show differences (p<0.01), that is, students' creative thinking ability improved significantly after teaching; (3) Integrating the three aspects, the mean score (x ā) is 4.10 and the standard deviation (S.D.) is 0.59, indicating that students are satisfied with the learning innovation based on design thinking.
