Ep.118. Does Creative Learning Begin with Uncertainty?

"Uncertainty: A Necessary Condition for Creative Learning" by Ronald A. BeghettoSummaryThis document explores how uncertainty is essential for creative learning. It argues that encountering disruptions or new stimuli prompts a need to think and act differently, initiating the creative process. The paper defines creative learning as developing new and meaningful understandings through both individual sense-making and social interaction. Critically, the author highlights that creative learning thrives in a state of "actionable uncertainty," where challenges are seen as opportunities for engagement and growth, rather than overwhelming obstacles. Educational practices, the author suggests, should embrace rather than avoid uncertainty to foster this kind of dynamic and personally significant learning.
