| Abstract In today's tech-driven society, characterized by the rise of digital transformation, it is crucial to prepare students for the constant changes and unforeseen challenges they may encounter. Recognizing the significance of creativity in this context, educators have increasingly emphasized its integration into the classroom and school curriculum. The proliferation of digital tools has heightened educators' awareness of the necessity of enhancing creativity. Spurred by the sounds of educators, this study aims to investigate the challenges that impede creativity education as a pedagogical technique, exploring the impacts of digital transformation on students' skills. For this purpose, data were collected through a survey design from 300 educators in public high schools. Participants' responses regarding the challenges and barriers of creativity education revealed certain issues such as assessment barriers, a lack of emphasis on fostering a creative culture within schools, a deficiency in material resources essential for adapting to digital transformation, and a lack of professional development programs for a digital environment conducive to creativity. The current research deepens our understanding of the deeply rooted barriers that hinder the processes of energizing student creativity. This study also sheds light on valuable insights that can direct future strategies in the realm of creativity education. | ||
