Definition

  • The 21st century will require creative minds to produce solutions to complex problems facing society; therefore, the cultivation of creativity is essential to prepare students to meet the challenges of the 21st century. Classrooms with teachers who value creativity and celebrate flights of fantasy, random insights, and off-beat analysis that force one to reconsider the wisdom of convention provide a safe haven for students to explore, thus nurturing creativity.
