How do we prepare students for jobs that don’t yet exist using technology that hasn’t been invented? In a world where change is constant, rapid, and unpredictable, the most important skill we can teach students is effective imagination to enable them to adapt to the unexpected. The future requires the imagination that leads to creativity—the one 21st century skill no one teaches.

The debate on teaching creativity focuses on what the schools—teachers and administrators—need to do. However, students do not learn creativity by watching and listening. They learn by generating their own ideas and then exploring those ideas through trial and error. Teaching creativity is like teaching how to ride a bike—you can describe it or guide it, but eventually, each individual must learn to ride on their own. Listen to this edWeb podcast with Dan Hunter, author of Learning and Teaching Creativity, Dr. Rex Jung, neuropsychologist and brain researcher, and Hathalee Higgs, partner and co-founder of Hunter Higgs, to explore creativity including:

• How to generate ideas
• How to design assignments to improve imagination
• How to measure creative progress
• How to improve your own imagination

This edWeb podcast is of interest to middle and high school teachers, school leaders, district leaders, and gifted and talented program leaders.
