Book Description

Dec 2009
`Creative Teaching for Tomorrow: Fostering a Creative State of Mind' is a study by distinguished authors Teresa Cremin, Jonathan Barnes and Stephen Scoffham. Based on a research project undertaken during 2004-2005 by Canterbury Christ Church University and Future Creative, the book explores the characteristics of creative teachers, identifying the behaviours and environments that support the development of these attributes.

`Creative Teaching for Tomorrow' involves a survey of 20 schools, revealing evidence that creative thinking benefits students economically, socially and academically. Real-life interviews with teachers and students, complete with questions and answers, attest that creative approaches do help to increase learners' personal curiosity and desire to learn, to realise the importance of risk-taking and to become more engaged with the learning experience as well as the world around them.

Product Description

From the Publisher

'Teaching for Tomorrow' is a brilliantly accessible, academic research study showing that creativity is not only about art and craft, it can be used to solve problems and think of new ways to deal with challenges. If teachers of tomorrow are to support the learners of tomorrow, then the significance of creativity must be acknowledged, explored and embedded within teaching and learning experiences. - Esme Chilton, Creative Director at Future Creative

From the Author

"One of the most interesting findings from our research was that teachers who think of themselves as creative seem likely to promote creativity in their pupils. In other words, they have a creative state of mind. Future Creative and creative partners have a critical role to play in promoting this mind-set in both teachers and young people. We also found that creative practice was likely to flourish best in schools where there was a clear commitment to a shared ethos and where staff enjoyed the active support of the school leadership." - Dr Stephen Scoffham, Principal Lecturer, Faculty of Education, Canterbury Christ Church University, and co-author of `Creative Teaching for Tomorrow'.
