"The authors are very well recognised in the field and the proposed synthesis of their work will provide a powerful book."
Dominic Wyse, Senior Lecturer, Faculty of Education, University of Cambridge, UK
"In the current climate of performativity being the main driver in many education systems internationally it is important to address how creative learning can still be nourished and can flourish. Being based on empirical research this book will be able to provide answers to teachers who wish to teach creatively.
The particular advantage of the proposed book is that it focuses on creative learning (rather than teaching) and incorporates the pupils’ perspectives on that learning. Further the fact that much of the text is based on empirical research rather than theory alone will make the book more attractive to a teacher audience."
Geri Smyth, Reader in the Department of Childhood and Primary Studies, University of Strathclyde, UK
