Abstract

The rapid technological and cultural changes in today's society have inevitably affected the field of education. Future teachers must be prepared to meet the challenges of this changing society. An interesting tool for adapting to change and resolving conflicts is creativity. Moreover, in this society communication, especially in the digital environment, is essential. This paper shows the results of a project in which Design Thinking methodology and social networks are used to promote creativity and communication in students of degrees related to the educational world. To analyze the impact, a quantitative study was conducted by collecting student perceptions through a questionnaire. A total of 163 students from education degrees at the University of Jaén (Spain) participated in the study. The results show a change in their perception of their creativity and communication, along with other dimensions analyzed. Therefore, it is concluded that it is interesting to introduce both this methodology and social networks in teacher training as a preparation for the future educational challenges they will have to face in an increasingly digitized world.
