Abstract

Student creativity and engagement in learning. As a widely accessible and flexible platform, YouTube offers a variety of educational videos, such as art tutorials, science experiments, and design processes, which provide students with valuable tools to enhance their creative thinking. These videos cater to diverse learning styles and foster an interactive learning experience. By analyzing student responses through an online questionnaire, the research examines how YouTube’s educational content stimulates cognitive processes, encourages independent thinking, and motivates students to explore subjects beyond traditional classroom settings. However, the study also considers challenges, such as content quality and potential distractions, which influence the platform’s effectiveness. The findings aim to help educators better integrate YouTube into teaching strategies, optimizing its potential to support creative and engaging learning environments.
