摘要:Capacities and qualities of creativity in teaching for quality learning have been identified by researchers and teaching strategies in fostering children’s creative thinking skills were proposed to create supportive environments in an educational setting. There is little consistent oratory, however, among these insights and strategies concerning different aspects of fostering creativity. In light of this, a fourfold elemental model of creative pedagogy is proposed to offer a more simple and holistic view of fostering and enhancing creativity through teaching to cover the aspect of creative learning affected by psycho-physical environment which was overlooked in the past and to provide a different explanation to some arguments about teaching creativity. This model is also a starting point for studies which intend to understand the teachers and pupils’ and psycho-physical environment responses to creative pedagogy and to provide implications for applying creative pedagogy in an Indian classroom and in Asian context as well.
