In database, 403 articles were obtained, which then supplemented by seven manual searches, so that there a total 410 articles. After strict inclusion process, 8 selected for analysis. The inter-rater reliability test using Cohen's Kappa coefficient produced value 0.78, indicates substantial level agreement. analysis includes data 497 participants 266 creativity. Heterogeneity in skill was 96%, creative skills, it 86%; then, subgroup education carried out find where high heterogeneity was. results show significant positive effect learning, with SMD 1.48 (p = .004) 1.60 .0001) Funnel plots Egger's regression tests indicate no risk publication bias. addition, this also synthesized causal how affects Further is recommended explore its long-term impact implementation strategies various educational settings.
