Creativity and the Information and Communication Technologies are considered as key factors for social and personal development. New technologies are valuable tools on learner's creativity cultivation. When the children act as movers they modify, adapt and combine fundamental movements. When creativity is expressed with a movement, is defined as a creative movement and its outcome as a creative product. The aim of the present study was to investigate if the proposed educational technique has been effective and furthermore to investigate the effects of a Digital Learning Environment (DLE) focused on basketball elements on the motor creativity of elementary school students. 86 students divided in 2 groups participated in the study. According the results, the DLE and its content effect with no significant difference among the three subgroups of the experimental group and help the students to express themselves, to improve their previous divergent movement ability.
