Abstract

The present study investigates the motivating effect on the students’ creativity for learning. Three scientific methods (ultraviolet-visible spectrophotometry, scanning electron microscope and transmission electron microscopy) with each given three lessons are purposefully arranged in the laboratory and classroom differently. The results for the final examination demonstrated that the experimental lessons in the laboratory can effectively motivate the students’ creativity for learning. The advantages provided by the laboratory include a free and creative environment, the personal attention that impresses them most, more stimuli for motivating the students’ thinking, expressing the knowledge in a right way, and most importantly sharing experience with the teachers in laboratory. It is recommended that more experimental lessons can be taken in laboratory in higher education for motivating the students’ creativity for learning and also fostering the students’ innovation ability.
