Pre-K-12 Learners: Creativity and Problem Solving

by Cleveland Museum of Art

Investigate ways that artists have experienced and solved problems throughout time.

Through design and play based activities, practice using creativity to solve problems of your own.

In this experience students may:

* Make observations, develop ideas, and compare findings with collaborators in their group

* Construct arguments, explanations, or design solutions by creating a prototype of sketch to demonstrate ideas

* Develop comfort with ambiguity to understand that there may be multiple possibilities, solutions and ideas related to a challenge

Program Details

Format

This program is very flexible, and each session is a bit different since students are making choices about their learning.
1. We will introduce the museum.
2. We'll explore 3-8 works of art from many different cultures, time periods, and areas of the museum.
3. Students will engage with works of art through drawing, creating a prototype, or responding to creative prompts.

Within a lesson, teachers may expect to see their students make choices such as:
- Selecting between several works of art to explore
- Making choices about strategies to engage with an artwork (i.e. writing, drawing, talking, movement, etc..)

Objectives

- Determine which artworks we engage with during the lesson
- Make collaborative decisions to drive learning with increased independence
- Make choices about strategies used to engage with artworks
- Use creative thinking to imagine alternate possibilities in artworks
- Generate multiple ideas and solutions
- Test out and evaluate solutions
- Develop a comfort with ambiguity
