Editorial Reviews

Review

“I’ve been reading and teaching with Creativity in the Classroom since its 1st edition, and I’m pleased to see that the 5th edition has retained the teacher-friendly tone of its predecessors, while incorporating all the latest research and emerging perspectives on creative teaching and learning. Starko continues to provide one of the best entry-level creativity texts on the market today.”―Dr. Michael S. Matthews, University of North Carolina at Charlotte

“Students in my university creativity course have appreciated the former editions of Creativity in the Classroom as it explains the theories underlying creativity as well as ways for teachers to implement those principles in the classroom. In this era of standardized curriculum and assessments it is vital for teachers to understand how to incorporate creative teaching and learning strategies and to recognize, value, and nurture the creativity of their students. This 5th edition includes expanded sections on technology, assessment for creativity, addressing the common core standards and ways to include students with special needs. ”―Stuart N. Omdal, Ph.D., University of Northern Colorado

5.0 out of 5 stars Teaching for creativity - fulfilling students' potential
Reviewed in the United States on December 9, 2014

This book convinced me that it is possible to complement classical learning with creative thinking development methods. It gave me a wide understanding of creativity, while offering tools and ideas for fostering creative thought. Many offer ideas for creative teaching. This book is about teaching for creativity. This is what we need to give our children.

It had writing/highlighting in it, but it was USED so I wasn't expecting a brand new book. It arrived on time and I had no problem with the product. It is exactly what I need for class!

Too much to read and decipher for what I needed which was strategies with an explanation of how to implement it. Probably good for someone who wants the pedagogy behind creativity. But since I just wanted activities...it didn't work for me.

4.0 out of 5 stars Kindle Addition = No Page Numbers
Reviewed in the United States on May 24, 2016
Verified Purchase
Good book overall; however, if you are using this for course work and you are required to do parenthetical citation, get the hard copy. The kindle addition does not have page numbers which makes in-text citations a nightmare. I know its freakishly expensive, but you should go ahead and spring for the hard copy.
