A compilation of how Creative Problem Solving is best designed for teachers to experience their own journey of facilitating for creativity in the classroom with different thinking tools to enhance Creativity. Emergenetics was the chosen profiling instrument to help teachers themselves situate their own understanding and behaviour of what creativity meant to them. They first experience how their energy generated for the 7 thinking and behavioural attributes (i.e. Social, Conceptual, Analytical, Structural, Expressiveness, Assertiveness, Flexibility) allow them to value what is creative. Thereafter the participants are grouped based on the Emergenetics concept of Whole Emergenetics (WE) team to harness different perspectives and values to design for a truly innovative process of teaching and learning. This professional learning course is designed by John Yeo, National Institute of Education, Singapore.
