Abstract

This study analyzes the effect of using the graphic design application Canva on the visual creativity of students at the Institut Keislaman Tuah Negeri. Employing a quantitative approach with a descriptive correlational design, a total of 73 students participated through an online questionnaire. Reliability testing indicated that the visual creativity scale achieved a Cronbach’s alpha of 0.81, while the Canva usage scale obtained a value of 0.48. Pearson correlation analysis revealed a positive and significant relationship between Canva usage and visual creativity (r = 0.50; p < 0.001). Simple linear regression produced the equation Y = 2.58 + 0.43X with an R² value of 0.25, indicating that 24.8% of the variance in visual creativity was explained by the use of Canva. These findings confirm that Canva can serve as an effective visual learning medium for enhancing students’ creativity. This study recommends increased institutional support and technology training to optimize the use of Canva in educational settings.TRANSLATE with xEnglishArabic Hebrew Polish Bulgarian Hindi Portuguese Catalan Hmong Daw Romanian Chinese Simplified Hungarian Russian Chinese Traditional Indonesian Slovak Czech Italian Slovenian Danish Japanese Spanish Dutch Klingon Swedish English Korean Thai Estonian Latvian Turkish Finnish Lithuanian Ukrainian French Malay Urdu German Maltese Vietnamese Greek Norwegian Welsh Haitian Creole Persian TRANSLATE with COPY THE URL BELOW BackEMBED THE SNIPPET BELOW IN YOUR SITE Enable collaborative features and customize widget: Bing Webmaster Portal Back
