The Seven C’s of Creativity

Creative Agents in the Classroom

Climate, Curricula, Curiosity

Maciej Karwowski | Aleksandra Zielińska

Psychology / Social Psychology

This edited volume explores the development and teaching of creativity in education (Curricula) using the seven C’s of creativity framework. It discusses the role creativity plays in the school system and its relationship to social and interpersonal dynamics and classroom climate. Drawing on the most recent theorizing and cumulative evidence, leading scholars in the field provide a nuanced yet authoritative perspective on creative learning, the assessment of creative thinking in educational contexts, and ways to make creativity more visible in schools and classrooms.

A timely reflection on the complex and evolving relationship between creativity and education, this volume challenges myths about creativity in schools and explores how creativity can be integrated into traditional assessment and teaching models. It also proposes a new, transformative approach to possibility learning. An invaluable collection that will interest academics, practitioners, researchers, and students alike across the humanities and social sciences.
