| metadata.dc.description.other-abstract: | The aim of this study was 1) to explore the perspectives of rural primary school teachers in Xing Ren, Guizhou Province, regarding the cultivation of students’ creative thinking skills and 2) to develop a teaching model better aligned with fostering creative thinking in the current educational context based on the teachers’ responses. This study employed a combination of questionnaire surveys and focus group interviews, selecting 354 rural primary school teachers from Xing Ren, Guizhou Province, China. Among these, 12 teachers from 6 schools were chosen to participate in focus group interviews. The questionnaire results revealed that teachers perceive significant deficiencies in the classroom environment and teaching methods related to fostering creative thinking skills. These areas demonstrated the highest developmental needs, as indicated by the Priority Needs Index (PNI = 0.66). While resources and collaboration (PNI = 0.66) and student engagement (PNI = 0.64) also warrant attention, the primary emphasis should be on enhancing the classroom environment and teaching methods to cultivate students’ creative thinking skills. Additionally, the focus group interviews highlighted the importance of fostering a supportive classroom environment, emphasizing the active role of students in the learning process, and establishing effective communication with parents to support the development of creative thinking skills. This study utilized the results from questionnaires and focus group interviews to develop guidelines for fostering creative thinking skills |
