What individual skills should
education systems foster?
Technical skills
(know-what and know-
how)
Creative and
Critical Thinking
skills
(Critical thinking,
observation, curiosity,
ability to make
connections,
imagination,...)
Social and
Behavioural skills
(Self-confidence, energy,
perseverance, passion,
leadership, collaboration,
communication)
Some comments on these skills
categories
• They are domain-specific
– Skills are generally domain-specific: one is creative in a field, one knows how to
behave/communicate in a specific context, one has problem-solving skills in a field,
one has content knowledge in a field
• They can become « domain-generic »
– A skills becomes « domain-generic » when one has gained it in a number of
domains or settings, so that it becomes a « habit of mind » (a disposition or a
stabilised skill) that one can apply to new fields
• They overlap and may reinforce
each other
But
• They are different and cannot
be reduced to a single skill (or
measure)

What the hell do we mean?
• « 21st century » skills are
acknowledged and competence-
based curricula are in place in
virtually all OECD countries
• Teachers do not disagree with
them, but they don’t know what
they actually mean in practice
• Curricula acknowledge them but
remain at odds with them in most
countries
• What does it mean to develop
young people’s creativity and
critical thinking?
Innovation
Skills
Education
and
training
1. Can we articulate a common international language?
2. Can we develop an exemplary pedagogical toolkit to teach and
assess creativity and critical thinking as part of countries’
(current) curriculum?
3. Can we identify a development (progression) scale for these
skills?
4. What are the key aspects of context that matter for their
development?
5. What are the effects of using the developed pedagogical toolkit
on pedagogies, beliefs, social and behavioural skills, and
standardised measures of creativity and academic
achievement?
Ongoing OECD project on fostering and
assessing students’ creativity and critical thinking
• Participation in 11 countries overall
– Brazil, France (3), India, Hungary, Netherlands,
Russia, Slovakia, Spain, Thailand, UK (Wales), United
States (3)
• 1st round (2015-16, 2016) in 9 countries
– Brazil, France (3), India, Hungary, Netherlands,
Russia, Slovakia, Thailand, United States (3)
– At least 128 schools, 372 teachers, 9093 students
• 2nd round (2016-17) in 9 countries
– Brazil, France, India, Hungary, Russia, Spain,
Thailand, UK (Wales), United States (2)

some creative thinking skills
Starting point: 5 creative habits of mind
(21st century skills)

Initial version of the rubric
CREATIVITY
(Coming up with ideas and solutions)
CRITICAL THINKING
(Questionning and evaluating ideas and
solutions)
Progression
INQUIRE
• Feel, empathise, observe,
describe relevant experience
and information
• Explore, seek and generate
ideas
• Understand context/frame and
boundaries of the problem
• Review alternative theories and
opinions and compare/find
perspectives on the problem
• Level 1
• Level 2
• Level 3
• Level 4
IMAGINE
• Make connections, integrate
other disciplinary perspectives
• Stretch and play with
unusual/risky/radical ideas
• Identify strengths and weaknesses
of evidence, arguments, claims and
beliefs
• Challenge assumptions, check
accuracy, analyse gaps in knowledge
• Level 1
• Level 2
• Level 3
• Level 4
DO / SHARE
• Envision / Express / Produce /
Prototype new product /
solution / performance
• Appreciate the novelty of
solution and/or possible
consequences
• Appraise / Base / Justify
opinion/products on logical, ethical
or aesthetic criteria/reasoning
• Acknowledge own bias (as perceived
by others) and uncertainty/limits of
endorsed opinion/solution
• Level 1
• Level 2
• Level 3
• Level 4
• Critical thinking is not (just):
– Problem solving (= usually technical knowledge)
– Logical/rational thinking or understanding (weighing and justifying
arguments)
• Most existing standardised tests of « critical thinking » assess
understanding and logical thinking (ability to weigh arguments
within a given paradigm and reach « right » solution)
• It is about:
– Challenging assumptions (the « core theory », not just auxiliary
hypotheses)
– Understanding the limitations of theories and conventions (live with
ambiguity/uncertainty)
– Being able to consider the validity of other theories (perspective taking)
Some conceptual difficulties
• Creativity is not:
– Giftedness
– « New to the world » ideas
– Innovation (ideas/solutions with proven social/market value)
• Creativity is usually about:
– Originality + some level of usefulness/functionality
– Fluency + originality + elaboration
– Divergent-exploratory + convergent-integrative
• In our case
– Imagination, ideation
– Exploring unusual ideas, experimenting
– Creation of something personally novel (daring to be different)
Some conceptual difficulties
• To design new pedagogical activities
• To improve existing pedagogical activities
• To develop new rubrics (domain-specific, expanded,
simplified, for self-assessment, etc.)
• To assess student work
• To keep in mind the importance of these competences
and teach/learn them explicitly (metacognition)
Uses of the rubric
Class-friendly rubric
CREATIVITY
(Coming up with ideas and solutions)
CRITICAL THINKING
(Questionning and evaluating ideas and
solutions)
INQUIRING
• Play with unusual and radical ideas • Challenge assumptions
IMAGINING
• Generate ideas and make
connections
• Find several perspectives on the problem
DOING
• Produce, perform or envision
something that is personally novel
• Propose own product/opinion justified
on logical, ethical or aesthetic criteria
REFLECTING
• Assess the novelty of solution and
of possible consequences
• Acknowledge uncertainty/limits of
chosen solution/position
a bank of pedagogical activities
• To show teachers what they could do to create space for the learning
of creative thinking
• Different types of pedagogical activities
– Different subjects (maths, science, music, visual arts, interdisciplinary)
– Different lengths (in terms of course sessions)
– Different types of pedagogies or pedagogical techniques
• They are not lesson plans: just meant to inspire teachers and make
visible the kind of teaching and learning environment that can
stimulate students’ creativity
• They are just a second-best to extended professional development
(and some professional development is key to grasp the main ideas)
Examples of pedagogical activities
One example of pedagogical activity
One example of pedagogical activity
1. Select a remote period of history of particular relevance for the
region or country of the students
2. Divide the class in teams representing some classes or groups of
society at that time (e.g. different guilds, nobility and peasants,
etc.).
– Students to do some initial research in the school library or computer
lab on their assigned group of society, for instance on topics such as
eating habits, clothing, crafts, leisure activities, etc.
– Students to present their initial findings to the class through some
staged performance
3. Select one particular and relevant episode within the chosen
historical period, ideally one that led to important changes, for
instance a war, a revolution or a discovery.
– Students to identify consequences or ramifications of the episode on
chosen dimensions e.g. visual arts, music, scientific vision of the world,
technology. Students to present their findings to the class.
One example of pedagogical activity
4. Students then to imagine a different course of history in the
absence of the event, or supposing its results had been different:
How would the region and the people living in it look like? What
differences would we find in the visual arts, and in science or
technology?
– Students then to modify existing artwork or propose variations in
technological solutions that would reflect such alternative courses of
history.
– Have teams mutually assess their scenarios and products/solutions
5. Identify more recent changes in the fields of visual arts and or
science/technology, and how they are related to recent historical
events.
– Discussion of how to promote desired changes in the region (e.g.
environment, culture): what would be needed for these to happen? How
would the arts and technology look like in that desired future?
– Have teams mutually assess their scenarios and products/solutions
One example of pedagogical activity
One example of pedagogical activity
One example of pedagogical activity
One example of pedagogical activity
A pedagogical activity aligned with the creativity and critical thinking rubric should:
1. Create students’ need/interest to learn
2. Be challenging
3. Develop clear technical knowledge in one domain or more
4. Include the development of a product
What makes a good activity?
A pedagogical activity aligned with the creativity and critical thinking rubric should:
5. Have students co-design part of the product/solution or problem
6. Deal with problems that can be looked at from different
perspectives
7. Leave room for the unexpected
8. Include space and time for students to reflect and give/receive
feedback
What makes a good activity?
• Process and learning environment?
– Montessori: Developmental Environmental Rating Scale (DERS)
– Developing a class observation tool to make sure we have a good
teaching process?
• Student artefacts?
– Should we notice in students’ outputs that they have more
creative and critical thinking potential?
– Could the process not be reflected in the actual output of
students?
• Is there a possible contradiction between process and
product?
– A creative educational process might not foster creative skills
– A directed educational process might foster creative skills
Some questions: how and what should
we assess?

arts and culture for innovation
Arne Duncan, former US Secretary of
Education
“Education in the arts is more important than ever. In the global economy, creativity is
essential. Today’s workers need more than just skills and knowledge to be productive and
innovative participants in the workforce. Just look at the inventors of the iPhone and the
developers of Google: they are innovative as well as intelligent. Through their combination
of knowledge and creativity, they have transformed the way we communicate, socialize, and
do business. Creative experiences are part of the daily work life of engineers, business
managers, and hundreds of other professionals. To succeed today and in the future,
America’s children will need to be inventive, resourceful, and imaginative. The best way to
foster that creativity is through arts education.” (2011)
“The best way to foster
[…] creativity is through
arts education”
What relationship between culture and
creativity
• At its best, culture/art is the
output of a creative thinking
and production process
• Can we conclude that arts
education or exposure to
culture is enough to foster
students’ creativity? Not
sure.
• The « openness » of artistic
activities makes it a great
medium to develop
students’ creativity or
creative thinking,
The impact of arts education on skills
for innovation
• Report by Ellen Winner, Thalia
Goldstein and Stéphan Vincent-
Lancrin
• Synthesis of all meta-analyses and
quantitative studies since 1950 –
510 findings and 39 outcomes
• Arts education: music, visual arts,
theatre, dance – and « multi-arts »
• 11 languages covered: Dutch,
English, Finnish, French, German,
Italian, Japanese, Korean,
Portuguese, Spanish, Swedish
• Almost no study on critical thinking
• Most studies (multi-arts, theatre, visual arts, dance) find a
positive link between arts education and creativity, but there are
too few studies and they are too weak statistically to generalise
• The lack of strong evidence does not imply that there is no effect
• Some studies show that some arts pedagogies have better effects
on creativity than business as usual
• There are good reasons to assume that the pedagogy is what
matters, even in arts education
Arts education and creativity: tentative
evidence
• To foster « technical » artistic skills (and understanding of
artistic forms) (first and foremost)
• To develop skills that are close to the « technical skills » of the
activity (outcomes)
• To achieve outcomes that are not directly related to arts
education but relate to features that generally comes with it
(e.g. non-school like activity, low stake, performing)
• To develop skills/habits of mind that are important in the
teaching/learning process (creativity, persistence, discipline)
– if they are taught explicitly and if there is learning
happening
What can one expect from arts
education?
• Studio thinking
(Hetland et al.)
– Envision, express,
observe
– Reflect
– Engage and persist
– Stretch and explore
• Could other disciplines benefit from typical visual arts
pedagogies such as:
– class-time devoted to working on projects while teachers offer
individual consultations of ongoing work
– regular, mid-project critiques
– Peer learning
– Presentation of work done to a public audience
Learning from quality arts education
(personalised learning?)
UK, Chile, Germany, Lithuania, Norway,
Pakistan, Hungary: Creative Partnerships
• UK (2002-2011): 1 million
children, 90k teachers, 5000
schools, 8000 projects
• « Creative agents » from the
creative and cultural
industries work with teachers
to address a specific need of
the school
• Outcomes:
– better student wellbeing,
retention and attainment
– teacher professional
development and new school
routines
• Driver: new pedagogy, better
teaching and learning quality
Singapore: School of the arts (SOTA)
• Created in 2008 to develop skills
beyond and above those necessary
to achieve high test scores
• Connected curriculum
– physics – sculpture
– chemistry – glazing and pottery
– mathematics – music
• In 2013, 100% of success in
International Baccalaureate,
including 44% in the top 5 decile
(against the predictions of the
Direct Admission Scheme)
• Why? Change of classroom
practices, etc.
• As in school, the pedagogies need to aim explicitly at creativity to
develop it
• Could the language and rubrics that we are developing for school
teachers help cultural agents?
• Would pedagogical activities and related quality criteria apply? Be
different?
• In the case of short exposure (museums, arts workshop, etc.), how can
we design activities that will create a sustainable appetite to learn and
develop the creative skills of the visitors/participants? Does it require
new relationships with schools?
• How should cultural agends be supported for this agenda?
Out-of-school arts/cultural education
concluding remarks
• What we already know
– We can have an international language on creativity, but it is
just a starting point
– Changing teaching and learning practice is a difficult
endeavour, which requires examples, professional
development and time
• Preliminary results of the monitoring of our
interventions are encouraging
– Change in the perceived teaching practices
– Change in the engagement and openness of students
– Change not detrimental to test scores, sometimes beneficial
– Seems to be easier in primary than secondary education
Concluding remarks
• Teachers
– Common understanding through a multiplicity of
artefacts and tools (slow and long process)
– Need for changes in teaching (including assessment)
practice and professional development
– Professional learning communities?
• Students
– More relevance of and engagement in their learning
– Acquisition of broader skill set
– Development of stronger social and behavioural skills
Concluding remarks
• To sharing inspiring initiatives that try to foster
and assess creative thinking skills
• To identifying effective strategies for supporting
teachers to do so
• To sharing innovative approaches to promote
creativity through cultural education programmes
• To discussing strategies for scaling up innovations
around creativity in education and culture
During our conference, we look forward
• The innovative domain of PISA 2021 will be
« creative thinking », building on the
framework developed by the CERI project
• International standardised assessments
– Raise the profile of the objectives in policy
making
– Have to remain connected to school teaching
practices
– Need to innovate in assesment format?
• This is the time to help shape this agenda!

Fostering creative thinking skills through education and culture

  • 6. What individual skills should education systems foster? Technical skills (know-what and know- how) Creative and Critical Thinking skills (Critical thinking, observation, curiosity, ability to make connections, imagination,...) Social and Behavioural skills (Self-confidence, energy, perseverance, passion, leadership, collaboration, communication)
  • 7. Some comments on these skills categories • They are domain-specific – Skills are generally domain-specific: one is creative in a field, one knows how to behave/communicate in a specific context, one has problem-solving skills in a field, one has content knowledge in a field • They can become « domain-generic » – A skills becomes « domain-generic » when one has gained it in a number of domains or settings, so that it becomes a « habit of mind » (a disposition or a stabilised skill) that one can apply to new fields • They overlap and may reinforce each other But • They are different and cannot be reduced to a single skill (or measure) Technical skills Creative and Critical Thinking skills Social and Behavioural skills
  • 9. What the hell do we mean? • « 21st century » skills are acknowledged and competence- based curricula are in place in virtually all OECD countries • Teachers do not disagree with them, but they don’t know what they actually mean in practice • Curricula acknowledge them but remain at odds with them in most countries • What does it mean to develop young people’s creativity and critical thinking? Innovation Skills Education and training
  • 10. 1. Can we articulate a common international language? 2. Can we develop an exemplary pedagogical toolkit to teach and assess creativity and critical thinking as part of countries’ (current) curriculum? 3. Can we identify a development (progression) scale for these skills? 4. What are the key aspects of context that matter for their development? 5. What are the effects of using the developed pedagogical toolkit on pedagogies, beliefs, social and behavioural skills, and standardised measures of creativity and academic achievement? Ongoing OECD project on fostering and assessing students’ creativity and critical thinking

  • 12. a portfolio of rubrics highlighting some creative thinking skills
  • 13. Starting point: 5 creative habits of mind (21st century skills) Source: Lucas, Claxton and Spencer (2013)
  • 14. Initial version of the rubric CREATIVITY (Coming up with ideas and solutions) CRITICAL THINKING (Questionning and evaluating ideas and solutions) Progression INQUIRE • Feel, empathise, observe, describe relevant experience and information • Explore, seek and generate ideas • Understand context/frame and boundaries of the problem • Review alternative theories and opinions and compare/find perspectives on the problem • Level 1 • Level 2 • Level 3 • Level 4 IMAGINE • Make connections, integrate other disciplinary perspectives • Stretch and play with unusual/risky/radical ideas • Identify strengths and weaknesses of evidence, arguments, claims and beliefs • Challenge assumptions, check accuracy, analyse gaps in knowledge • Level 1 • Level 2 • Level 3 • Level 4 DO / SHARE • Envision / Express / Produce / Prototype new product / solution / performance • Appreciate the novelty of solution and/or possible consequences • Appraise / Base / Justify opinion/products on logical, ethical or aesthetic criteria/reasoning • Acknowledge own bias (as perceived by others) and uncertainty/limits of endorsed opinion/solution • Level 1 • Level 2 • Level 3 • Level 4
  • 15. • Critical thinking is not (just): – Problem solving (= usually technical knowledge) – Logical/rational thinking or understanding (weighing and justifying arguments) • Most existing standardised tests of « critical thinking » assess understanding and logical thinking (ability to weigh arguments within a given paradigm and reach « right » solution) • It is about: – Challenging assumptions (the « core theory », not just auxiliary hypotheses) – Understanding the limitations of theories and conventions (live with ambiguity/uncertainty) – Being able to consider the validity of other theories (perspective taking) Some conceptual difficulties
  • 16. • Creativity is not: – Giftedness – « New to the world » ideas – Innovation (ideas/solutions with proven social/market value) • Creativity is usually about: – Originality + some level of usefulness/functionality – Fluency + originality + elaboration – Divergent-exploratory + convergent-integrative • In our case – Imagination, ideation – Exploring unusual ideas, experimenting – Creation of something personally novel (daring to be different) Some conceptual difficulties
  • 17. • To design new pedagogical activities • To improve existing pedagogical activities • To develop new rubrics (domain-specific, expanded, simplified, for self-assessment, etc.) • To assess student work • To keep in mind the importance of these competences and teach/learn them explicitly (metacognition) Uses of the rubric
  • 18. Class-friendly rubric CREATIVITY (Coming up with ideas and solutions) CRITICAL THINKING (Questionning and evaluating ideas and solutions) INQUIRING • Play with unusual and radical ideas • Challenge assumptions IMAGINING • Generate ideas and make connections • Find several perspectives on the problem DOING • Produce, perform or envision something that is personally novel • Propose own product/opinion justified on logical, ethical or aesthetic criteria REFLECTING • Assess the novelty of solution and of possible consequences • Acknowledge uncertainty/limits of chosen solution/position
  • 19. a bank of pedagogical activities
  • 20. • To show teachers what they could do to create space for the learning of creative thinking • Different types of pedagogical activities – Different subjects (maths, science, music, visual arts, interdisciplinary) – Different lengths (in terms of course sessions) – Different types of pedagogies or pedagogical techniques • They are not lesson plans: just meant to inspire teachers and make visible the kind of teaching and learning environment that can stimulate students’ creativity • They are just a second-best to extended professional development (and some professional development is key to grasp the main ideas) Examples of pedagogical activities
  • 21. One example of pedagogical activity
  • 22. One example of pedagogical activity
  • 23. 1. Select a remote period of history of particular relevance for the region or country of the students 2. Divide the class in teams representing some classes or groups of society at that time (e.g. different guilds, nobility and peasants, etc.). – Students to do some initial research in the school library or computer lab on their assigned group of society, for instance on topics such as eating habits, clothing, crafts, leisure activities, etc. – Students to present their initial findings to the class through some staged performance 3. Select one particular and relevant episode within the chosen historical period, ideally one that led to important changes, for instance a war, a revolution or a discovery. – Students to identify consequences or ramifications of the episode on chosen dimensions e.g. visual arts, music, scientific vision of the world, technology. Students to present their findings to the class. One example of pedagogical activity
  • 24. 4. Students then to imagine a different course of history in the absence of the event, or supposing its results had been different: How would the region and the people living in it look like? What differences would we find in the visual arts, and in science or technology? – Students then to modify existing artwork or propose variations in technological solutions that would reflect such alternative courses of history. – Have teams mutually assess their scenarios and products/solutions 5. Identify more recent changes in the fields of visual arts and or science/technology, and how they are related to recent historical events. – Discussion of how to promote desired changes in the region (e.g. environment, culture): what would be needed for these to happen? How would the arts and technology look like in that desired future? – Have teams mutually assess their scenarios and products/solutions One example of pedagogical activity
  • 25. One example of pedagogical activity
  • 26. One example of pedagogical activity
  • 27. One example of pedagogical activity
  • 28. A pedagogical activity aligned with the creativity and critical thinking rubric should: 1. Create students’ need/interest to learn 2. Be challenging 3. Develop clear technical knowledge in one domain or more 4. Include the development of a product What makes a good activity?
  • 29. A pedagogical activity aligned with the creativity and critical thinking rubric should: 5. Have students co-design part of the product/solution or problem 6. Deal with problems that can be looked at from different perspectives 7. Leave room for the unexpected 8. Include space and time for students to reflect and give/receive feedback What makes a good activity?
  • 30. • Process and learning environment? – Montessori: Developmental Environmental Rating Scale (DERS) – Developing a class observation tool to make sure we have a good teaching process? • Student artefacts? – Should we notice in students’ outputs that they have more creative and critical thinking potential? – Could the process not be reflected in the actual output of students? • Is there a possible contradiction between process and product? – A creative educational process might not foster creative skills – A directed educational process might foster creative skills Some questions: how and what should we assess?

  • 43. arts and culture for innovation
  • 44. Arne Duncan, former US Secretary of Education “Education in the arts is more important than ever. In the global economy, creativity is essential. Today’s workers need more than just skills and knowledge to be productive and innovative participants in the workforce. Just look at the inventors of the iPhone and the developers of Google: they are innovative as well as intelligent. Through their combination of knowledge and creativity, they have transformed the way we communicate, socialize, and do business. Creative experiences are part of the daily work life of engineers, business managers, and hundreds of other professionals. To succeed today and in the future, America’s children will need to be inventive, resourceful, and imaginative. The best way to foster that creativity is through arts education.” (2011) “The best way to foster […] creativity is through arts education”
  • 45. What relationship between culture and creativity • At its best, culture/art is the output of a creative thinking and production process • Can we conclude that arts education or exposure to culture is enough to foster students’ creativity? Not sure. • The « openness » of artistic activities makes it a great medium to develop students’ creativity or creative thinking,
  • 46. The impact of arts education on skills for innovation • Report by Ellen Winner, Thalia Goldstein and Stéphan Vincent- Lancrin • Synthesis of all meta-analyses and quantitative studies since 1950 – 510 findings and 39 outcomes • Arts education: music, visual arts, theatre, dance – and « multi-arts » • 11 languages covered: Dutch, English, Finnish, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese, Spanish, Swedish
  • 47. • Almost no study on critical thinking • Most studies (multi-arts, theatre, visual arts, dance) find a positive link between arts education and creativity, but there are too few studies and they are too weak statistically to generalise • The lack of strong evidence does not imply that there is no effect • Some studies show that some arts pedagogies have better effects on creativity than business as usual • There are good reasons to assume that the pedagogy is what matters, even in arts education Arts education and creativity: tentative evidence
  • 48. • To foster « technical » artistic skills (and understanding of artistic forms) (first and foremost) • To develop skills that are close to the « technical skills » of the activity (outcomes) • To achieve outcomes that are not directly related to arts education but relate to features that generally comes with it (e.g. non-school like activity, low stake, performing) • To develop skills/habits of mind that are important in the teaching/learning process (creativity, persistence, discipline) – if they are taught explicitly and if there is learning happening What can one expect from arts education?
  • 49. • Studio thinking (Hetland et al.) – Envision, express, observe – Reflect – Engage and persist – Stretch and explore • Could other disciplines benefit from typical visual arts pedagogies such as: – class-time devoted to working on projects while teachers offer individual consultations of ongoing work – regular, mid-project critiques – Peer learning – Presentation of work done to a public audience Learning from quality arts education (personalised learning?)
  • 50. UK, Chile, Germany, Lithuania, Norway, Pakistan, Hungary: Creative Partnerships • UK (2002-2011): 1 million children, 90k teachers, 5000 schools, 8000 projects • « Creative agents » from the creative and cultural industries work with teachers to address a specific need of the school • Outcomes: – better student wellbeing, retention and attainment – teacher professional development and new school routines • Driver: new pedagogy, better teaching and learning quality
  • 51. Singapore: School of the arts (SOTA) • Created in 2008 to develop skills beyond and above those necessary to achieve high test scores • Connected curriculum – physics – sculpture – chemistry – glazing and pottery – mathematics – music • In 2013, 100% of success in International Baccalaureate, including 44% in the top 5 decile (against the predictions of the Direct Admission Scheme) • Why? Change of classroom practices, etc.
  • 52. • As in school, the pedagogies need to aim explicitly at creativity to develop it • Could the language and rubrics that we are developing for school teachers help cultural agents? • Would pedagogical activities and related quality criteria apply? Be different? • In the case of short exposure (museums, arts workshop, etc.), how can we design activities that will create a sustainable appetite to learn and develop the creative skills of the visitors/participants? Does it require new relationships with schools? • How should cultural agends be supported for this agenda? Out-of-school arts/cultural education
  • 54. • What we already know – We can have an international language on creativity, but it is just a starting point – Changing teaching and learning practice is a difficult endeavour, which requires examples, professional development and time • Preliminary results of the monitoring of our interventions are encouraging – Change in the perceived teaching practices – Change in the engagement and openness of students – Change not detrimental to test scores, sometimes beneficial – Seems to be easier in primary than secondary education Concluding remarks
  • 55. • Teachers – Common understanding through a multiplicity of artefacts and tools (slow and long process) – Need for changes in teaching (including assessment) practice and professional development – Professional learning communities? • Students – More relevance of and engagement in their learning – Acquisition of broader skill set – Development of stronger social and behavioural skills Concluding remarks
  • 56. • To sharing inspiring initiatives that try to foster and assess creative thinking skills • To identifying effective strategies for supporting teachers to do so • To sharing innovative approaches to promote creativity through cultural education programmes • To discussing strategies for scaling up innovations around creativity in education and culture During our conference, we look forward
  • 57. • The innovative domain of PISA 2021 will be « creative thinking », building on the framework developed by the CERI project • International standardised assessments – Raise the profile of the objectives in policy making – Have to remain connected to school teaching practices – Need to innovate in assesment format? • This is the time to help shape this agenda!
