Özet:     This   study   explores   the   effects   of   Computer   Literacy-­‐II   course,   which   is   enhanced   with  creative   examples,   on   students’   creative   thinking,   critical   thinking   and   academic  achievement  in  a  collaborative  learning  environment.  The  participants  of  the  study  were  47  freshmen   from   Gazi   University,   Department   of   Social   Sciences   Education.   A   One-­‐Way  ANCOVA   analysis   was   conducted   to   examine   the   effects   of   educational   environment   with  two  levels  while  pre-­‐test  scores  was  covariate.  The  results  showed  that  there  is  a  significant  difference   between   creative-­‐collaborative   computer   activities   and   creative   computer  activities   on   the   side   of   creative-­‐collaborative   computer   activities.   Two-­‐way   ANOVA   was  used   for   the   research   question-­‐-­‐which   is   related   to   the   learning   environment—asking  whether   the   student   teachers’   academic   achievement   rates   change   according   to   the  participants.   According   to   the   findings,   there   has   been   an   increase   in   posttest   academic  achievement   rates   of   prospective   teachers   who   receive   education   in   both   groups.  Furthermore,  the  relationship  between  critical  thinking  and  creative  thinking  was  examined  by   using   Pearson   product-­‐moment   correlation   coefficient.   Correlation   analysis   shows   that  there   is   a   non-­‐significant,   low,   positive   correlation   between   critical   thinking   and   creative  thinking.
