Abstract
  • This study investigates how digital pedagogical creativity is conceptualized and demonstrated by pre-service and in-service teachers enrolled in the MA EDIN program at a university in Tashkent. In response to the growing need for innovative digital teaching practices in higher education, this qualitative case study examines how teachers engage with digital tools and creative pedagogies during their coursework. Data was gathered from 30 participants through semi-structured interviews, focus groups, and analysis of 55 digital artifacts. The study uses thematic analysis with NVivo software to understand how patterns of creativity as action are performed in digital learning environments. This research attempts to reconceptualize digital pedagogical creativity in locally relevant ways and builds on the international discourse concerning teacher education creativity. The results will help shape the expected practices of teachers, the curriculum, and institutional policies on fostering creativity in educational teaching practices using modern technologies.
