Publisher's Synopsis
"Creativity has been regarded as a key competency in curricula around the world for years, and increasingly, schools in North America are following suit. Still, its place in curriculums is relatively new-and with so many varying approaches and assessments, how can educators be sure their instruction is hitting the mark? Informed by current research and the authors' years of experience as creative educators, Creative Actions: Embedding Creative Competencies in Every Classroom by Tim Patston, James C. Kaufman, and David Cropley provides clear definitions and offers practical solutions to the challenges teachers may confront when tackling this emerging key competency in the classroom. With lesson plan templates for every subject and a tool kit for students to encourage creativity in their daily lives, Creative Actions equips educators to incorporate creative competencies in their instruction with confidence and ease"--.
