CREATIVITY ELEMENT IN 21ST CENTURY LEARNING: THEORY AND AFFECTING FACTORS

Creativity is acknowledged as one of the most important elements of skills in 21st-century learning but to which extent that it is possible to draw researchers to study the driving factors and barriers to the implementation of such elements. Using systematic review is a process of identifying all credible evidence of a clinical problem, the main objective of this article is to provide a theoretical justification of the variables of student creativity development. This article will explain the different aspects of factors affecting the development of student creativity focusing on students with low socioeconomic background problems and at risk of dropping out. In addition, opinions from creativity theories and models were analyzed to obtain similarities and differences of views on contributing and hindering factors. The purpose is that the findings of the analysis will help various parties to find alternatives in helping the problem of creativity among the students. Based on the purpose of this study is to identify the factors of creativity of students based on theory and literature review, researchers use content analysis methods on theory, model, the study literature from 2015 to 2021. The results of the study discovered that individual factors, motivation, environment, and actualization are key variables that aid the creative process of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds. In line with the theoretical framework model, we suggest that future research can complement the research gap as the basis for long-term creative development as well as methods of how to overcome controllable dominant factors. Our literature review has underlined a number of themes and insights that hopefully will be useful for future studies.
