Creativity in the Science Classroom
I was recently reading the September/October 2021 issue of \u201cScience Scope\u201d a publication of the National Science Teaching Association.\xa0\xa0In this issue, I read the section \u201cFrom the Editor\u2019s Desk\u201d written by Patty McGinnis.\xa0\xa0Patty wrote an article entitled \u201cCreativity in the Science Classroom.\u201d
Students learn science\u2014and use critical and creative thinking\u2014by doing science.\xa0\xa0Rather than focusing on memorizing facts, they are engaged in application in which they apply content knowledge to real-world situations.
