CREATIVITY IN THE CLASSROOM
Creativity includes -- and is more than -- the arts. Creative thinking
is a twenty-first century skill that applies to all subjects, all grade
levels, and all ages. It is a skill that prepares students and adults
for a rapidly changing world, where complex problems do not have
pre-defined, easy solutions.
Creativity involves creative and critical thinking skills that can be
taught, practiced, and applied in all curriculums. In this workshop, you
will:
* Explore what creativity is, who has it, and how to unleash more of it.
* Think about thinking ... and learn how to think in new ways.
* Learn and practice applied creative thinking skills.
* Discover styles and types of creative thinking within the creative
process.
* Connect creativity to the classroom.
