Sažetak
The aim of the present study was to compare gifted and average students on measures of perceived digital competencies related to creativity (digital content creation and problem solving) before and after the implementation of the “e-Schools” project in Croatia (“e-Schools: Establishing a System for Developing Digitally Mature Schools (pilot project)”. Additionally, it was explored whether the use of information and communication technologies (ICT) in everyday and school-related activities predicted creativity- related digital competences (after controlling for the initial levels of those competencies). The information about the gifted students in 7th and 8th grade was obtained from 11 elementary schools participating in the project (N=79). Their results were compared to average students selected randomly from their classes, excluding students with difficulties (N=171). The students were assessed by means of an online questionnaire. The results showed that the students reported the intermediate level of creativity-related digital competencies, but an increase was noted from the first to the second measurement point. The gifted and average students showed similar levels of creativityrelated digital competencies in both measurement points. Interestingly, although the use of ICT activities accounted for a significant proportion of creativity-related digital competencies in both samples, school-related ICT activities predicted creativity-related digital competencies in the gifted, but not in the average students. These results suggest that encouraging the use of school-related ICT activities might foster creativity-related digital competencies in gifted students.
