Abstract
Thinking Skills (TS) in problem-solving will guide each individual using smart problem-solving steps and produce thoughtful ideas in design thinking, opinions, precise arguments and have a high level of creativity in daily life especially for a student. Hamdan et al. 2022 and Yee et al. 2010 research findings have confirmed that most common problem faced by tertiary students when completing tasks in producing products was finding ideas to develop a tangible product. Karan and Angadi (2023) reported that the rise of artificial intelligence (AI) is rapidly influencing our education system. This research experiment explores to prepare graduates for future AI in creative industries. Integrated Creative Activity Instruction (ICAI) is a framework developed to measure the impact of thinking skill infusion on graphic design students. Design thinking and creativity are among the two important constructs to nurture future talents for IR 4.0 transformation. The Minister of Education needs to nurture more talented young Malaysians, and therefore new curriculum should be revised to ensure the country has produced sufficient young talents for IR 4.0 transformation. This research aims to explore the possibility of AI integration in teaching to stimulate students’ creativity at tertiary level. First, exploration in AI integration. Second, implementation of the experimental instruction. Last, measuring the impact of new experimental instruction. The assessment tools are designed based on ICAI framework, Torrance Test of Creative Thinking, focus group interview and class observation. The results show that ICAI instructional approach to enhance student creativity with AI integration was significant.
