The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of algo-heuristic lesson design on creative thinking, creative strengths and achievement of students in visual art subject. The research method used in this study was the quasi-experimental method. It was divided into two groups; treatment group and control group. The treatment group applied the algo-heuristic lesson design method and control group used the expository lesson design method. Both groups used the same multimedia courseware but with different methods of teaching. The findings indicate that the algo-heuristic lesson design method significantly improved creative thinking skills, creative strengths and artwork quality among Form Four students in visual art subject. The significant implication of this study was the algo-heuristic lesson design method had enhanced students’ creative thinking, creative strengths and achievement in artwork quality compared to students who were taught using the expository lesson design method.
