Abstract

Abstract:When is creativity teachable? Is it a single scientific field, and who is appropriate to undertake its teaching? What are Socrates's criteria, and how can we apply them to creativity? This paper examines the value of creativity as it arises through scholars historically in the fields of philosophy and education. It also examines forms and theories of creativity in education. Gradually, curricula began to consider the cultivation of students' creative thinking, and interest was shifted form "gifted" children to creativity for all. Are heuristics sufficient to contribute effectively to the adoption of techniques that promote creative thinking within the school environment and make it a separate lesson in the curriculum, or should we try some "risky" scientific choices?

我们能教创造力吗?将苏格拉底的准则扩展到现代教育

摘要:创造力何时可教?它是一个单一的科学领域吗?谁适合从事它的教学?苏格拉底的标准是什么，我们如何将其应用于创造力?本文考察了历史上哲学和教育领域的学者所提出的创造力的价值。它还研究了教育中创造力的形式和理论。渐渐地，课程开始考虑培养学生的创造性思维，兴趣从“天才”儿童转向所有人的创造力。启发式是否足以有效地促进学校环境中促进创造性思维的技术的采用，并使其成为课程中的一个单独的课程，或者我们是否应该尝试一些“冒险”的科学选择?

期刊介绍： The Journal of Aesthetic Education (JAE) is a highly respected interdisciplinary journal that focuses on clarifying the issues of aesthetic education understood in its most extensive meaning. The journal thus welcomes articles on philosophical aesthetics and education, to problem areas in education critical to arts and humanities at all institutional levels; to an understanding of the aesthetic import of the new communications media and environmental aesthetics; and to an understanding of the aesthetic character of humanistic disciplines. The journal is a valuable resource not only to educators, but also to philosophers, art critics and art historians.
