Abstract
Why are curiosity and creativity so relevant for all learning? Can curiosity in the classroom be measured? How can researchers and educators work together to develop teaching strategies that encourage children to embrace creativity? In this episode of the Teachers' Voices podcast, Nina Alonso welcomes Sarah Richardson and Sladana Krstic from the Australian Council for Educational Research (ACER) who have been conducting research in collaboration with International Baccalaureate (IB). They discuss partnering with teachers in the classroom to test prototype material with the ultimate aim of tracking and fostering creativity and curiosity among students. Nina also talks to educators in China, India and Australia about the importance of curiosity and creativity in the classroom. The educators discuss their roles in the research conducted by ACER and the development of the tools they are able to use to support their learners.
