Ku et al [15] applied ATDE in creative teaching strategies in a course on professional nursing concepts that addressed fluency, flexibility, and uniqueness and determined that fluency and flexibility, but not uniqueness, improved substantially over three semesters in students enrolled in a 2-years nursing program.…”
