CREATIV LEARNING METHOD

visit www.metodoclm.eu
The CLM (Creative Larning Method) bases on the idea that creativity should inform every action, evaluation and decision and should not be only seen in connection with aspects such as that of novelty and artistic expression. Creativity should be deemed an “all-round” tool capable of orienting people’s choices, behaviours and interpersonal relations at best. It is thanks to creativity that one can solve problems, prevent difficulties from turning into insurmountable obstacles and “read” and interpret surrounding reality correctly.
Creativity should be central in any learning and teaching process. We would also underline that creativity belongs to everybody and can be “learnt”. We all are born creative and endowed with a vivid imagination which however is undermined by habits, routines and behavioural patterns with the passing of time. Nevertheless it is possible to re-learn creativity with a diligent practice and motivations combined with proper strategies. Indeed, good ideas come up when we want them to.
The CLM suggests sequences which can be useful to the development of educative creativity with the specific goals to: facilitate learning, develop awareness and trust in one’s creative potential, facilitate meaningful changes in the learner, support the flourishing of people’s cognitive, relational and practical potential, let people learn how to learn, support people in the process of self-appropriation of contents and behaviours, strengthen people’s social attitudes and stimulate consciousness mechanisms.
