My main focus of creative learning has been aimed at making learning more memorable for students. I have touched on the fact that students who learn how to be creative and innovative thinkers grow up with certain skills that will help them be contributing members of society. Lee and Kolodner’s article Scaffolding Students’ Development of Creative Design Skills: A Curriculum Reference Model discusses the benefits of creative learning as it pertains to students and their abilities to think outside the box. Coming up with creative solutions to problems found in their communities, environmentally and globally. Lee and Kolodner also discuss the importance of creating a program that connects core curricular structures to the creative learning process. The article provides a variety of approaches that promote sustainable development.

“Our goal, consistent with societal needs for citizens who are creative thinkers, is to find ways to promote development of creative thinking skills. We want to understand how to integrate the learning of such skills into the everyday curriculum of schools, as we want our solution to be accessible to all young students.”
