摘要：Social media plays a role in the development of a personal knowledge system and
personal creativity. This paper develops a theoretical model to analyze the relation
between social media and creative expression in design education. Based on the flow
theory, the generativity theory, and TAM, the paper collects data regarding the usability
dimension of students in social media, and their creativity, and examines the proposed
model through statistical software SAS9.4 to analyze the data. A correlation is seen
between the usability dimension of social media and the creative expression
dimension, with an especially significant positive connection between perceived ease
of use and perceived usefulness, as well as capturing and challenging. The adoption
intention of social media is positively correlated with creative expression, while the
usability dimension of social media has positive correlation with broadenings and
negative correlation with surroundings; however, neither is significant. This reveals that
aimlessly accumulating knowledge through social media will not help students improve
their creativity; instead, overusing social media hinders one from understanding the
real world and gaining inspiration. The paper is conducive to better social media design
and higher personal creativity.
