“…When the literature is reviewed, it can be seen that art education has positive effects on brain functions, mood, and behaviors (Park et al, 2015). Education in the visual arts supports multidirectional thinking and productivity skills; makes individuals feel happier and more self-confident (Kaya, 2015); develops creativity, problem solving, and self-expression skills; feeds aesthetic feelings and supports mental skills (Ture, 2007); and positively affects verbal creativity (Hui, He, & Ye, 2015). Music education is seen to positively affect emotional development by improving pulmonary functions and breathing, as well as reducing stress with positive developments in physical health and mood (Clift & Hancox, 2001); increasing adaptation skills (Author, 2000); developing social relations while performing in groups (Davidson & Good, 2002); and causing a significant difference in self-esteem (Broh, 2002;Toy, 2006).…”

“…Currently, Hong Kong educators lack confidence in implementing the creativity-fostering curriculum because most of them have no relevant training (Cheng, 2011;Davis & Krjcik, 2005;Hui et al, 2015).

In the modern paradigm of sustainability, the role of creativity is of growing significance. No literature was found to have explored the relationship of creativity and environmental sustainability, in the perspective of university students. It is unsure-how our university students perceive them, especially for students of different backgrounds. This study aims at investigating the views of university students on human creativity (HC) and environmental sustainability (ES), and how these two views might affect their supportiveness and understanding of HC-ES integrated development. Case studies of four university students were conducted. They were carefully chosen in an education university of Hong Kong, a place where east-west culture meets. The Self-determination Theory and the Four-C Creativity Model were adopted to frame this study and to analyze its data. Two rounds of interview were conducted with interview scripts transcribed for content analysis. Results showed that the university students hold quite diverse views on HC, ES and HC-ES relationships. The students with general creativity training and/or authentic experiences in ES/HC were found to adopt a little-C and mini-C creativity conception and a self-determined ES approach, which subsequently bought a greater support to HC-ES integrated development/education. Based on the present findings, creativity training is recommended to environmental or sustainability programme in university education. Adopted the case study method, the present research has finally revealed the complexity of this seemingly simple issue, and paves the way for future creative environmental development and its research studies.

High quality art education can provoke creativity [21]. Different types of ingredients provide many sensory experiences.…”
