This is an introductory, integrative course in the history, psychology, value and practice of creativity across a variety of domains, from scientific research to the arts. Students will learn to identify and explain key ideas and historical figures in the study and practice of creative thinking, as well as the impact creative thinking has had on society. They’ll also learn to reliably generate novel ideas of value, both solo and collaboratively.
