Continued from thread: Creativity can't be taught
Yeah - I don't think we are saying creativity can't be taught, I think we are discussing how creativity can be stifled. Let's change the topic and talk about how creativity can be nutured.
Joni, you mention teachers who have helped you better understand creativity. Can you elaborate? As someone who teaches - granted not 'creativity' but 'creatively' - I am interested to learn how teachers have helped others.
One thing I do as an English teacher, is employ the "discovery method" (something I learned when I was taught how to teach swimming of all things!). I think the Discovery Method of teaching inspires independent thinking and independent problem solving, which can in turn nurture creativity.
What say you?
Alison
