Project Brief
Creativity and innovation have a powerful presence in educational philosophy. Emphasis on creativity as a 21st century skill that students need to be successful in the real world is a big part of the conversation. While most educators agree that teaching creativity is important, there are very few tools that exist to support the teaching and assessment of creativity in the classroom. “Cultivating Creativity” is a tool that was developed to guide students and educators through the biography of an idea. Students use four categories to record and reflect upon their creative endeavors. This powerful blueprint not only makes creative thinking visible, but offers students and teachers the opportunity to draw conclusions and assess creative experiences in the classroom.

EVIDENCE OF LEARNING
|
This week we have really put together a great piece, and it is gong to be amazing. While working on this project, I learned how easy it is to create something, when you have a group that has a good connection. My group always talked to one another, but we never interrupted each other, or judged one another. It was very easy for us to make everyone happy. I also learned that in groups, there doesn't always have to be one leader of the group, because I think that in the past I have been in groups where one person steps up and leads everyone else, and although Samia came up with the idea, I feel that we are all equal contributors to the choreography. I have learned so many new ideas, and I have benefited a lot from this project. Thank you group!
