Description

Creativity is an important skill for students as they prepare for jobs in the 21st century. Solving the technological, environmental, and social challenges of our day requires a great amount of creative thinking. Yet creativity is difficult to assess in a school setting and takes longer to develop, so school standards are generally not built around creative skill sets.

In “Creative Thinking Skills-Nurturing the Process,” Bob Iseminger engages teachers with the philosophy and application of creative skill sets for modern students. With practical ideas such as classroom choices and asking questions, this course will help teachers apply creative concepts to any lesson plan.

In this 1-hour course, teacher will learn:

  • The definition and characteristics of creative thinking
  • How to help students understand their own creativity
  • How to take a creative inventory
