A RESEARCH firm has raised concerns over the recent results of the Programme for International Student Assessment test, which ranked Filipino students among the bottom five in creative thinking.
“These reactions from Filipinos on social media provide valuable insights into the public sentiment regarding the PISA test results in creative thinking,” said Ella Kristina Coronel, who is the research director at Capstone-Intel. She added that developing creative thinking is now more complex due to massive digital acceleration, artificial intelligence or AI, and social media.
The OECD report highlighted that effective classroom pedagogies are critical for developing creativity of students. Those who scored high in the PISA tests reported that their teachers encouraged them to produce original answers, and allowed them to express ideas in school. Additionally, active participation in school activities such as art, drama, creative writing, or programming classes at least once a week was associated with better performance in creative thinking.
In the latest PISA test on creative thinking, only 3 percent of 15-year-old Filipino students matched the average creative thinking skills of students in top-ranked Singapore, highlighting significant deficiencies in the creative thinking abilities of local learners, according to Capstone-Intel.
