Creative education. Good practices

Abstract

From the beginning of 2017 education reform has been introduced in Poland. The main objective is to better prepare students for individual development and the needs of postmodern society and the labour market. Therefore, today, more and more emphasis is placed on entrepreneurship, creativity and innovation. An example of an initiative that perfectly fits into such a trend is the nationwide Review of Innovation and Creativity in Education organised for five years by the Academy of Humanities and Economics in Lodz. This article presents selected achievements of the laureates of the Review. Analysis of these examples indicates that creative education does not simply constitute the joy of freeing expression in oneself and others, but also provides the satisfaction of jointly changing the world for the better. From this perspective, the pupils’ potential constitutes the foundation for tomorrow’s education.
