Abstract

This study aims to identify and analyze relevant characteristics associated with creative thinking, particularly in arts and design education. A systematic literature review was conducted following the PRISMA protocol, utilizing the Scopus database, where 292 studies were retrieved through search strings. From these, 187 studies were selected for the final analysis. The results highlight an emphasis on experiential learning, STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics), and interdisciplinary approaches as prevalent educational methodologies for fostering creative thinking. The identified techniques include interdisciplinary projects, artistic practices, nature-based activities, and the use of digital tools. The core skills identified include originality, fluency, flexibility, and elaboration. Furthermore, it was observed that most of the studies were conducted in higher education institutions. The study underscores the urgency of promoting research in specific regions, such as Latin America, to contribute to advancing and enriching the educational landscape in these areas. Additionally, it emphasizes the importance of fostering creativity from an early age. The significance of this study lies in its contribution to more effective pedagogical practices for the development of creative thinking that positively impacts education and prepares individuals for the challenges of the 21st century.
