Abstract

How might faculty foster student creativity in the classroom? There has been growing recognition that encouraging students’ creative potential is a worthwhile educational goal, as creativity is an intricate part of the human experience and a skill necessary for future graduates. Some course subjects are inherently creative by nature; many are not. Discovering methods in which to encourage student creativity in traditionally non-creative courses can be instructionally challenging. Student development of mood boards is one way in which to foster creativity in the postsecondary classroom.

Keywords: Mood boards, creative pedagogy
