Over het webinar

Creativity has been considered an essential 21st century learning skill. To become adept at developing new knowledge and finding effective solutions to problems, students need to learn to ask questions, think divergently, deal with contradictory ideas, and have an open mindset. Therefore, how can schools prepare students to appreciate different perspectives and interact respectfully with peers? The purpose of this webinar is (a) to discuss how teachers can identify creativity in the classroom and the circumstances that encourage it, (b) to examine strategies and practices that effectively foster students’ creativity, and (c) to reflect on learners’ thinking and behaviors that could be associated with creativity.
