The Fun of Creative Learning
Learning needs to be fun! The fun of creative learning is self-motivating because the learner is curious and wants to know more. They take on the challenge of finding answers or solving problems. Teachers need to foster and nurture the creativity of their learners by incorporating assignments that call for original work, independent and interdependent learning, as well as self and group initiated projects involving experimentation, investigation and discovery.
