Creativity is increasingly recognized as an important skill in education, and storytelling can enhance motivation and engagement among students. However, conventional storytelling methods often lack the interactive elements necessary to engage students. To this end, this study examines the impact of an interactive digital storytelling system incorporating a human-like robot on student engagement and creativity. The study aims to compare engagement levels across three modalities: paper-based, PowerPoint, and robot-assisted storytelling, MotiBo. Utilizing a quasi-experimental design, this work involves three groups of students who interact with the storytelling system over a five-day learning. Findings reveal that students using MotiBo exhibit statistically significant improvement in behavioural and cognitive engagement compared to those using traditional methods. These results suggest that the integration of novel technologies can effectively enhance the learning experience, ultimately promoting creativity and self-learning ability in educational settings. Future research will investigate the long-term effects of these technologies on learning outcomes and explore their potential for broader applications in diverse educational contexts.

翻译：创造力日益被视为教育中的一项重要技能，而叙事能够提升学生的学习动机与参与度。然而，传统的叙事方法往往缺乏吸引学生所必需的交互元素。为此，本研究探讨了一种融合拟人化机器人的交互式数字叙事系统对学生参与度与创造力的影响。研究旨在比较三种叙事模式的参与度水平：纸质叙事、PowerPoint叙事以及机器人辅助叙事系统MotiBo。本研究采用准实验设计，将三组学生纳入为期五天的学习过程，使其分别与不同叙事系统进行交互。研究发现，与使用传统方法的学生相比，使用MotiBo的学生在行为参与和认知参与方面均表现出统计学上的显著提升。这些结果表明，新型技术的融合能够有效提升学习体验，最终在教育环境中促进创造力与自主学习能力的发展。未来研究将深入探究此类技术对学习成果的长期影响，并探索其在多样化教育场景中更广泛的应用潜力。
