" After working with the kids for one year and a half what we can see in them is a strong motivation for raising problems and then solving them. One of the best courses that has been very successful in fostering children’s creativity. The class was fully interactive and was held with a great enthusiasm from the students and their coach. In other words, the workshop can be described as follows: The coach led the kids to discover the problem by themselves and the attempts to solve it caused a community of inquiry to take place, the same as what we see in the philosophy workshops for children (p4c). Finally, the kids learned that there were no boundaries for their imagination and they are able to think without limits and after that, they can reach practical methods and useful tools regarding the limits. "
Mrs. Mahsa Qabai (Director at Boomerang art and literature academy for Children)’s review about the Creative Problem Solving workshop.
Creative problem-solving workshop was designed for children from 8 to 12 years old to coach them through a series of idea developing sessions during which participants where encouraged to think of problems that can occur in an imaginary situation for imaginary characters and try to come up with creative solutions to them using design methods. Afterwards they were asked to present their ideas verbally using 2D and 3D sketches.
