Fostering Creativity in the Science Classroom
While educators universally agree on the importance of creativity, research shows a troubling trend: 98% of kindergarteners demonstrate high creative capacity, but that number plummets to just 12% by age 15.
This asynchronous professional learning course provides science teachers with a practical, evidence-based framework to reverse this trend and systematically develop students' creative capabilities alongside content mastery. By debunking persistent myths and focusing on everyday creativity, participants will leave with actionable tools to design environments where student innovation flourishes.
