And yet, schools are institutions with many important structures and guidelines that teachers must follow. Effective creative teaching strikes a delicate balance between structure and improvisation. The authors draw on studies of jazz, theater improvisation, and dance improvisation to demonstrate that the most creative performers work within similar structures and guidelines. By looking to these creative genres, the book provides practical advice for teachers who wish to become more creative professionals"-- 0aStudent-centered learning.9126763 0aActive learning. 0aCreative teaching. 0aMotivation in education. 7aPSYCHOLOGY / General91272381 aSawyer, R.
