Description
Have you ever struggled to come up with good ideas? Maybe you have spent hours staring at a blank piece of paper hoping that a creative idea will strike you. Dr. Joyce Juntune says that there is an easier way to generate ideas. They key lies in verbal fluency, one of the basic foundations of creativity. When students have good verbal fluency, they can come up with several answers to the same problem. In part six of this nine-part series, “Developing Creative Thinking in the Classroom – Building Verbal Fluency,” Dr. Juntune shares how she discovered and encouraged verbal fluency in her classroom.
In this course you will learn:
- Verbal fluency for review, pre-writing, and test prep
- Example exercises to use in your class

There were some good ideas in this course. I think the last qusetion on the quiz was difficult why does it matter if I can put the steps to the game in order of the way you explain it. WHat is the diffence between the two items saying to choose a related word? And what does it matter if you pick the number of rungs on the ladder 1st you choose the topic first?
