Abstract
The purpose of this study is to explore what kind of technological creativity will be displayed when junior high students face the rules of implementation and task orientation in the creation competition. During the 107th National Junior High School Technology Creation Competition, the students’ performance was recorded. Then, according to the Shape Change, Combination Method and Additional Function of the Technological Creativity Table, the final performance of the “hydraulic mechanical arm” was analyzed and discussed. The findings and conclusions are as follows: (1) In order to overcome the high altitude problems, the team with better performance solve the problem by lift the arms up; (2) From the perspective of Combined Method, students attended in the competition are good at using the hinge to modify the traditional structure for getting better movement, stronger structure and faster assembly; (3) From the perspective of External Functions, the teams use the devices other than the main structure of the hydraulic mechanical arm to assist the operation process in order to get more accessible experience and higher score.
