The lens of transformative learning provided a deeper understanding of students’ experiences and the process of learning within an interdisciplinary creativity course for first-year college students. Through the thematic analysis of 930 reflective narratives written by 93 students, the research identified how the overall course activities expanded and reframed their insights on creativity. Three frames of creative minds are presented to show the potential for transformations using students’ voices about impactful experiences: creative dynamics, transformation as a heightened awareness of the value of creativity to society and self; creative mindsets, transformation as a deeper understanding of diverse aspects of creativity; and creative confidence, transformation as a transfer in perspectives to real-world applications. In addition, the findings from this study proposed a framework to build creative confidence via educational strategies for creative learning.

洞察创意思维的三个框架：点燃一年级大学生的视角转变

变革性学习的视角让一年级大学生更深入地了解学生在跨学科创意课程中的经历和学习过程。通过对 93 名学生撰写的 930 篇反思性叙事的主题分析，该研究确定了整体课程活动如何扩展和重新构建他们对创造力的见解。提出了三种创造性思维框架，以利用学生关于有影响力的经历的声音来展示变革的潜力：创造性动力、变革是对社会和自我创造力价值的高度认识；创造性思维，转变为对创造力的各个方面的更深入理解；和创造性的信心，转变为将视角转移到现实世界的应用程序。此外，
