ABSTRACT

This study compared and analyzed the effect of design thinking mindset acquisition in offline learning, active online learning, and passive online learning. The research method was to conduct a survey and analyzed the data gathered by answers from 128 university students who received design thinking education by the three different learning methodologies above. To derive a mindset evaluation question for a survey, at first, mindset related data of existing design thinking researchers was investigated to derive 8 mindsets (ambiguity, experimental spirit, empathy ability, integrated thinking, open thinking, cooperation, curiosity, creative confidence). Afterwards, the flat phrases corresponding to each mindset were recombined with design thinking researchers' mindset evaluation questions and psychology's mindset evaluation questions to form 34 questions. The comparison result of the learning effects of 8 mindsets according to the three education methods is as follows. Active online learning showed similar mindset acquisition effect to offline learning. Conversely, passive online learning showed that the learning effect was lower than that of offline learning in the remaining five mindsets excluding experimentation, collaboration, and open mind. Based on the experimental research, it was derived that for the acquisition of design thinking mindsets, active online learning is more effective than passive online learning, and active online learning shows the effect of acquiring design thinking mindsets similar to offline learning. This study confirmed the possibility that active online learning can replace offline learning in order to acquire the design thinking mindset. In addition, it was confirmed that it is necessary to select and develop effective online learning method such as active online learning rather than introducing indiscriminate online learning methods. In the future, it is expected that various studies will be conducted for effective learning methods of design thinking online.
