Description
As educators continue to respond to calls to prepare the next generation of 21st century creative problem solvers, it would be advantageous to take a step back to examine how students learn to become independent problem seekers. Participants in this interactive session learn how to promote problem-seeking skills by cultivating students’ sense of curiosity, desire for social justice, and individual interests in current events. Learn practical strategies that inspire and empower future 21st century problem seekers through an examination of an interdisciplinary enrichment unit based on Graham Wallas’ model of the creative process.
