Paper Abstract:
|
This paper explores the implementation of a creativity support system (CSS) for tertiary students
studying Games Design and Development at Deakin University, Victoria, Australia. The students at the
centre of this study are the next generation of learners and are often called the Internet generation
because of their pre-imposed for online and being connected. The CSS for the games students is
designed within a context that encompasses a whole system, as focusing on only one component to
augment a persons creativity does not take into consideration the multitude of factors, for example
social factors, that are pertinent on a person ability to grow their creative behaviours. This study will
present a set of factors that each CSS should employ to facilitate creative abilities within people, with
particular focus on how social activities help to enhance creativity. |
