Journal of Learning and Teaching in Digital Age, v7 n2 p260-273 2022
This study aimed to determine whether digital literacy has a direct effect on creative thinking disposition and an indirect effect through lifelong learning disposition. The study was conducted with 327 teachers working in Siirt Province, Turkey in 2021-2022 academic years. "The Marmara Creative Thinking Dispositions Scale", "Digital Literacy Scale" and "Lifelong Learning Trends Scale" were used in the data collection process. Correlational survey method was employed in this study. The structural equation modeling technique was also used to analyze the relationships of variables. Two models, which explain the direct effect of digital literacy on creative thinking disposition and its indirect effects through lifelong learning disposition, were developed. As a consequence of the analysis, it was determined that structural models were in good agreement with each other. In this study, digital literacy has a statistically significant and positive effect on creative thinking disposition both directly and indirectly through lifelong learning disposition.
