  10. Creativity is not a process Creativity is a non-objective product committed by social assessments (Yu, 2006). How to present a varied, valuable creativity in a society is worth consideration.

  11. Impacts of Education Curriculum in Grade 1-9 Teachers’ and students’ creativity is respected and promoted. However, some people argue that there is no way to teach creativity in the English curriculum because creativity is creative.

  12. Rationales on Creativity A. Creativity is a Way of Cognitive Thinking B. Creativity is an Environmental Product C. Teaching Creative Thinking in English Teaching is necessary.

  13. A. Creativity is a Way of Cognitive Thinking Elimination (e.g., Electronic-books => E-books), 2. substitution (e.g., a story of Snow Black (should it be Snow White?) 3. combination (e.g., walk + man => walkman), people can create some ideas, change their lifestyle, have fun or even have a sense of achievement.

  14. Creativity and Problem-solving Creativity could facilitate sensing problems, especially finding valuable problems (Tardif and Sternberg, 1988). 2. People could develop creativity by finding, identifying and clarifying problems (Brophy, 1998). Therefore, . . . . .

  15. Four Components of Divergent Thinking 1. Originality of thinking, 2. Flexibility of mind, 3. Fluency of mind, 4. Elaboration of mind. Guilford (1950)

  16. Six Components for Evaluating Creativity Originality Flexibility, Elaboration, Fluency, Openness Entitling. William (1980)

  17. Divergent & Convergent Thinking S1: John is handsome S2: John is mature. S3. Mary is handsome. S4: John is ripe.

  18. Creativity is an Environmental Product writing some information or responses inventing MP3 or even MP4 (a) the individual dimension, (b) the micro-dimension, (c) the macro-dimension (Urban, 1990) thinking about the blue ocean strategy

  19. Four Components of Interaction A person’s capacity for creativity, Characteristics of a creativity- fostering environment, (c) The creative process (d) The interaction among the above three components.

  20. Developing creative thinking in English Classes Students read a lot in order to prepare some language input for language output. (Hung, 洪蘭, 2006). 2. Students can be more involved in the creative process through cooperative learning, such as creative drama activities (McCaslin, 1980) or reader theater activities (Walker, 2005).

  21. Teaching Creative Thinking in English Teaching A. Encouraging Originality B. Highlighting Flexibility C. Speeding Up Fluency D. Reinforcing Elaboration

  22. Teaching Creative Thinking in English Teaching Teachers cannot overstate the originality of the English teaching method (in divergent thinking) at the cost of the other teaching methods since no single teaching method is perfect for every student (in convergent thinking).

  23. Highlighting Flexibility Ccreativity can be developed by eight methods (Hao. 郝廣才2006) : 1.combination (a pencil + an eraser => a pencil with an eraser) 2.separation (a video recorder/player => a video player) 3.transformation (a black fan => a colorful fan) 4.association (a school bag => an e-pad) 5.reversion (a bad bug => a good bug, such as an ant for gold mining detection) 6.questioning (why => how) 7.imagination (visual input => visual intake) 8. passion(creating something for some lovers)

  24. Training Creative Thinking in E. Classes • 1.combination (e.g., reader theater) • 2.separation • (e.g., teaching vocabulary with audio-visual aids or clozes) • 3.transformation (e.g., teaching writing by sketching) • association • (e.g., thought mapping in vocabulary instruction)

  25. A Variety of Book Forms A 8-Grid Book (2) An Unfolding Book (3) A Triangle Book

  32. Speeding Up Fluency 1. Cooperative learning integrates social skill objectives with academic content objectives in education (Presseisen, 1992) 2. In ecology, students can get some socio-cultural stimuli from their partners’ cooperative work and thus have more creative thinking.

  33. Reinforcing Elaboration 1. Students need to be trained to elaborate their ideas clearly and briefly. They can be encouraged to 2. Students can take notes of the features of their ideas in index cards or Powerpoint slides.

  34. Conclusions 1. Although creativity is a product of thinking, it can be trained. 2. Nevertheless, people have to use but not abuse creativity in order to meet their real needs and interests in daily life or business.

  35. Conclusions 3. Four components of creativity can be applied in English teaching and learning. 4. As long as teachers and students keep the four components of creativity in their mind and practice creative thinking, they can produce a lot of amazing or original ideas in English teaching and learning.

  36. Conclusions 5. Teachers’ groups, or students’ groups can create a super work through cooperation and creativity.
