Abstract: One of the primary aims of STEAM education is to fit out students with the competence of creativity to solve problems. Creativity is believed to be closely related to the ability of making distant associations and combining unrelated concepts. This article explored the effects of three kinds of association mediations , remote association, close association, free association on students’ constructive thinking, creative skills, empathy, and design scheme. Results marked that both remote and covered association were effective strategies in promoting creativity in the STEAM course. Whence, students in the remote association group achieved a considerably higher degree of creative thinking. While students in the close organization group significantly outperformed the remote association group on creativity ability and quality of design ideas.
