Abstract

Creative thinking skills are one of the important skills of people in the 21st century, especially with science and medical personnel that, in addition to their scientific skills, they need creative expression of science together to enable to communicate or present complex information interesting and effective. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to synthesize the theoretical and designing framework of the learning environment according to constructivist theories approaches to enhance creativity and creative scientific expression. This research uses model research [3] that focuses on synthesis of the design process and development of learning models. It consists of 3 main steps which are 1) document analysis and learning context 2) analysis of learning theory principles and learning design theory 3) Synthesize and create theoretical framework and designing framework. The results show that the components of the theory that can support the research to achieve its objectives consist of 5 components: (1) learning theories, (2) Teaching model, (3) contextual base, (4) creative thinking and creative expression of science, (5) Media theories. The designing framework has 5 important goals which are (1) Stimulating the creation of intellectual structures, (2) Supporting intellectual balance, (3) Promoting creativity, (4) Promoting Creative expression of science, (5) Promoting and helping to balance intellectual. There are 7 components to designing this framework: (1) Problem situation, (2) Learning Resources, (3) Critical Thinking Center, (4) Collaboration Center, (5) Creative Thinking Center, (6) Creative expression of science Center, (7) Scaffolding Center.
