Description

The Creative Classroom presents a compelling vision of schools where teaching and learning are centered on creativity. Drawing on research and his studies of jazz and improvised theater, Sawyer describes curricula and classroom practices that will help educators get started with guided improvisation.

This approach gives students the freedom to explore within structures provided by the teacher, helping them master content-area standards while increasing their creative potential. The book shows how teachers and school leaders can work together to overcome barriers to creative teaching and transform schools into creative organizations.
