Abstract
This research investigated college design students’ mindset for the “decision to be creative” when they have a design project in front of them; moreover, this research investigated factors that influence students’ creative mindset and how educators enhance creative mindset to students. In order to address these purposes, a qualitative triangulation was used. The major findings of this study provide a number of important implications for improving pedagogical strategy, utilizing the concept of the creative mindset within a design education context. Moreover, this study provides directions for future research regarding the creative mindset in design education and suggestions for expanding this study to contribute to other disciplines that is needed creative thinking.
