Abstract

This case study aimed to enhance students’ creativity by developing task motivation, expertise, and creativity-relevant skills according to the componential theory of creativity in the vocational Chinese class. There were five objectives of this research: to investigate the current situation of student creativity in vocational Chinese classes, at Beijing Polytechnic; to explain the componential theory of creativity; to design and implement appropriate teaching techniques to develop student creativity, task motivation, expertise, and creativity-relevant skills in the vocational Chinese class; to determine the differences in these variables of the vocational Chinese class between pre-survey and post-survey; to design a teaching project to sustain the results of a study based on the results of the quantitative and qualitative results findings. The population was 120 freshmen, and 50 students attended the vocational Chinese class by purposeful sampling. The same questionnaire was administered two times before and after the survey to determine the change level. The paired-sample t-test proved there is a statistically significant difference in four variables between pre-survey and post-survey. The semi-structured interviews and reflection reports were utilized for thematic analysis. Key recommendations are made to further foster creativity at the focal system organization at the individual, department, and university levels for sustainable development.
