Analysis of the Effect of Artificial Intelligence Integration in Design Learning on Creativity, Reflection, and Mindset
Keywords:
AI, Creativity, Design Mindset, Learning, ReflectionAbstract
The development of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in education, especially in design
teaching, offers great potential to improve students' creativity, reflection, and
design thinking mindset. This study aims to evaluate the effect of AI integration
in design-based learning on students' creative thinking ability, reflection, and
design mindset. The study used quantitative methods with a cross-sectional
design, involving 82 respondents from various departments in higher education
institutions. The research instrument was a questionnaire covering aspects of
creativity, reflection, and design mindset. The data analysis technique used
descriptive analysis. The results showed that 59.76% of the respondents were 19
years old, and most (85.37%) were 3rd semester students. The use of AI in designbased
learning was proven to increase student creativity with an average score of
3.66 on a scale of 5, strengthen reflection skills with an average of 3.63, and
improve design thinking mindset with an average of 3.75. However, the results
also revealed that AI is more effective as a supporting tool in the learning process
rather than replacing direct interaction between students and educators. Therefore,
AI can be integrated as a tool that supports creativity, but still requires the role of
human guidance.
