Summary:碩士 === 國立臺灣師範大學 === 科技應用與人力資源發展學系 === 98 === The aim of this research is to explore the relationship of university students’ thinking styles and their creativities in a synchronous e-brainstorming learning environment. The main purposes of this study were listed as follows: 1. To explore the principles and processes of the synchronous e-brainstorming method. 2. To explore the differences of students’ creativities referred to their thinking styles. 3. To investigate the effects of the synchronous e-brainstorming method on students’ creativities. 4. To understand students’ satisfaction with the synchronous e-brainstorming learning mode. This study adopted an experimental instruction for three weeks. The subjects were ten students in the Department of Industrial Technology Education, National Taiwan Normal University. The research instruments were Thinking Styles Inventory(TSI), worksheets, Abbreviated Torrance Test for Adults(ATTA), and learning satisfaction questionnaire. The statistic methods included descriptive statistics, Mann-Whitney U test and Wilcoxon matched-pairs signed-rank test. Results of this study were listed as the followings: 1. Based on the literature review and study findings, summed up the principles and processes of the synchronous e-brainstorming method. 2. There is no significant difference in creativity test between the students of global and local thinking styles. Referred to the result of qualitative analysis, the students of global thinking styles concentrate on the whole images, but the ones of local thinking styles focus on every detail. 3. There is no significant difference in creativity test scores between pre-test and post-test. Students’ post-test mean scores are better than pre-test ones. 4. Most students are satisfied with the synchronous e-brainstorming learning mode, especially with the interaction part.
