Abstract

The aim of this study is to determine the effect of the brainstorming technique on students’ academic achievement and creative thinking. Within the scope of this research, 22 studies were found for academic achievement and 8 studies for creative thinking. Hedges g index was used for effect sizes of individual studies. Effect sizes of individual studies were combined with a random effects model to calculate the overall effect size. As a result of the meta-analysis study, it was determined that teaching based on the brainstorming technique had a “medium†effect size (ES = 0.958, 95% CI: 0.682–1.234) on academic achievement. It was determined that teaching based on the brainstorming technique had a “strong†effect size (ES = 2.267 95% CI: 1.273–3.279) on students’ creative thinking. As a result, it was seen that the brainstorming technique had a “moderate†effect on students’ academic achievement and a “strong†effect on creative thinking. The heterogeneity test performed to determine the significance of the variance between effect sizes was significant ( p
