Creativity is imagining possibilities, making new connections, creating something new. Increasingly valued as an essential capability for living, thriving and participating in society, creativity can be applied to every school subject. How? The use of Project-Based Learning (PBL) is an effective way to help cultivate creative thinking skills. PBL challenges students to learn through engagement with real-world problems, actively involving them in meaningful activities.
