Description
As we stand at a crossroads where the strict content standards of No Child Left Behind may ease, allowing for a broader view of students' strengths and capacities, creativity is again gaining momentum as a key skill and capacity for the 21st century. This session provides strategies for those who seek to advocate for and integrate creativity in the classroom, including best practices for identification, nurture, developing a supportive classroom culture, curriculum adaptations, instructional approaches, and assessment. A substantial handout and resource list is provided.
