Using Methods of Analogy for Creativity EnhancementFocused on the Instances of Furniture
The objective of this study is to suggest that using methods of analogy increases one”s creative output.An experiment was conducted for the study under three different conditions in which one keyword,keywords,and visual images were given to subjects.The results revealed that analogy by keywords and visual images is more effective than analogy by one keyword.Also verbal analogy by keywords is more effective for students with high sketching ability to produce a creative design,and visual analogy by visual images is more effective for students with low sketching ability.With regards to problem solving by analogy,students with high sketching ability usually generate ideas of evolving type,and students with low sketching ability usually generate ideas of divergent type.Therefore in teaching and learning,more creative output will result if verbal analogy by keywords is given to students with high sketching ability and visual analogy by visual images is given to students with low sketching ability.And educators should guide students with low sketching ability to fully develop one or two of their divergent ideas that are generated so that an evolved idea may be achieved.
