 Abstract:

Recently, a crucial issue of college innovation in Korea is creativity convergence education. Fostering education college students with creativity convergence competency is emerging as an important aspect. However, the current curriculum operation to implement a creativity convergence education for the education of college students is insufficient. Accordingly, an analysis of the recognition and demand of education college students on creativity convergence education was done. A survey was conducted on the recognition and demand of creativity convergence education for 326 education college students, and the differences were compared. As a result of this study, various differences were revealed according to gender, grade, and detailed majors in the education college. These results show that a creativity convergence education should be implemented considering the background variables of education college students and more opportunities for various career paths and choices should be provided. Therefore, it implies that the creativity convergence education that reflects the recognition and demand of education college students should be more actively conducted in the education colleges.
