The story behind the project...
Research Goal
‘cultivate in young children an appreciation for their artistic creativity’
• Malaguzzi (as cited in Sharp, 2004, p. 8) describes
“that interaction with adults, plays a large role in fostering children’s artistic creativity”.
• Brownlee (1991) says that if children are not given the right empowerment or encouragement this can stunt their creative development and steer them away from being artistically creative.
Research Question
‘how can teachers’ foster young children’s artistic creativity?’
‘how do teachers’ views impact on children’s creativity?’
