Reseña del editor:

Most books about creativity for teachers are either scholarly texts that focus on primary research or books of "creative lesson plans" with no associated research or theory. Creativity in the Classroom: Schools of Curious Delight, Second Edition is designed to help teachers link research and theory regarding creativity to the everyday activities of classroom teaching. Its mission is to provide enough theory and enough examples of applications to enable teachers to use the information in their everyday grouping arrangements, lesson plans, assessment activities, and grading schemes.

Ideal for courses dealing with teacher creativity, teaching gifted and talented students, and for critical thinking courses, this text features:
*Research and Theory--Part I includes information on theories of creativity, characteristics of creative individuals, talent development, motivation, and creativity.
*Application--Part II includes strategies designed to explicitly teach creative thinking, ways to weave creative thinking into content area instruction, and ways to organize basic classroom activities, such as grouping, assessment, and grading to be supportive of students' creativity.
* Pedagogy--Each chapter includes reflection and journaling activities and boxed lesson ideas.

This edition includes a new section on problem finding, the most recent revisions to the Creative Problem Solving model, recent research on the links between creativity and intrinsic motivation, and numerous lessons developed by practicing teachers.
