Title
About creativity, giftedness, and teaching the creatively gifted in the classroom
Abstract
In this case study the author explored a teacher's beliefs about creativity and giftedness and investigated the classroom practices of this teacher of gifted students for 20 years. Seven semi-structured and 2 open observations were carried out in her classroom, and 2 prefigured interviews were conducted with her. She believed that creative children are those who are "free thinkers" and have "imaginative intelligence." The thin line between an academically gifted child and a creatively gifted child is built by "imagination," "emotional intensity," and "curiosity." In creative writing, she tried to implement activities such as learning to write poetry, personal narratives, research reports and essays posing solutions to real world problems, and mystery stories decorated with similes, metaphors and imaginative expressions. In reading, students analyzed characters, problems, places and times in stories and novels, and then rewrote stories.

titleTranslation: Sobre la creatividad, la superdotación y la enseñanza de los superdotados creativamente en el aula abstractTranslation: En este estudio de caso, el autor exploró las creencias de un maestro sobre la creatividad y la superdotación, e investigó las prácticas en el aula de este maestro de estudiantes superdotados durante 20 años. En su aula se realizaron siete observaciones semiestructuradas y 2 abiertas, y se le realizaron 2 entrevistas prefiguradas. Ella creía que los niños creativos son aquellos que son "pensadores libres" y tienen "inteligencia imaginativa". La delgada línea entre un niño académicamente dotado y un niño creativamente dotado se construye mediante la "imaginación", la "intensidad emocional" y la "curiosidad". En la escritura creativa, trató de implementar actividades como aprender a escribir poesía, narraciones personales, informes de investigación y ensayos que plantean soluciones a problemas del mundo real, e historias de misterio decoradas con símiles, metáforas y expresiones imaginativas. En la lectura, los estudiantes analizaron personajes, problemas, lugares y épocas en cuentos y novelas, y luego reescribieron historias.
