Finally pulled out some of the materials to review from THE BEST CLASS I’ve ever taken. It was an elective I took my last semester of grad school back in Spring 2007. It was a class geared toward K-6 education majors in the department of Educational Psychology: Creativity.
I STILL think about the class and I’m excited to reread all the course materials.
The course was described as: “The major purpose of this introductory course is to study the theoretical and practical aspects of creativity, namely, what is creativity, and how do we develop in ourselves and students? The course is an introductory overview of major definitions, theories, and research related to the study of creativity and the creative individual. Class members will practice techniques for stimulating creative thinking as well as strategies for adapting existing curricula to develop creative thinking abilities in students. Topics also include the assessment of creative thinking, methods for enhancing personal creative abilities, and techniques for examining the creative process.”
