摘要:This research investigated the effects of creative drama on situational interest, career
interest, and science-related attitudes of science majors and non-science majors. Also
investigated were students’ perception toward creative drama. 55 science majors and
28 non-science majors from five high schools in Malaysia voluntarily participated in
this 5-day creative drama activity held in Taiwan. They completed pre-tests on “The
Individual Interest Questionnaire” and “Test of Science-Related Attitudes”. They
designed, prepared, and presented their creative drama during the 5-day. A post-test
was administered after the activity. Creative drama was found to have triggered the
situational interest in science within both majors. The career interest and sciencerelated
attitudes of science majors were found to have significant improvement; some
students’ perception toward science careers and science have changed after the
activity. Some students commented that creative drama had developed their courage,
social skills, teamwork, creativity, self-reflection, presentation skills, critical thinking,
and problem-solving skills.
