How to nurture creativity in tomorrow's
innovators--today's college students
When asked what they want colleges to emphasize most, employers
didn't put science, computing, math, or business management
first. According to AAC&U's 2013 employer survey, 95% of
employers give hiring preference to college graduates with skills
that will enable them to contribute to innovation in the workplace.
In Engaging Imagination: Helping Students Become Creative and
Reflective Thinkers, two leading educators help college
instructors across disciplines engage students in nurturing
creativity and innovation for success beyond the classroom. Alison
James, an expert in creative arts education, and Stephen D.
Brookfield, bestselling author, outline how creative exploration
can extend students' reflective capabilities in a purposeful
way, help them understand their own potential and learning more
clearly, and imbue students with the freedom to generate and
explore new questions.
This book:
* shows why building creative skills pays dividends in the
classroom and in students' professional lives long after
graduation;
* offers research-based, classroom-tested approaches to
cultivating creativity and innovation in the college setting;
* provides practical tools for incorporating "play"
into the college curriculum;
* draws on recent advances in the corporate sector where creative
approaches have been adopted to reinvigorate thinking and
problem-solving processes; and
* includes examples from a variety of disciplines and
settings.
Engaging Imagination is for college and university faculty
who need to prepare students for the real challenges of
tomorrow's workplace.
