Current, comprehensive, and authoritative, this text gives language teachers and researchers, both a set of conceptual tools with which to think and talk about creativity in language teaching and a wealth of practical advice about principles and practices that can be applied to making their lessons more creative. Providing an overview of the nature of creativity and its role in second language education, it brings together twenty prominent language teachers and researchers with expertise in different aspects of creativity and teaching contexts to present a range of theories on both creative processes and how these processes lead to creative practices in language teaching.
Unique in the field, the book takes a broader and more critical look at the notion of creativity in language learning, exploring its linguistic, cognitive, sociocultural and pedagogic dimensions. Structured in four sections- theoretical perspectives, creativity in the classroom, creativity in the curriculum, and creativity in teacher development-each chapter is supplemented by Questions for Discussion and Suggestions for Further Research. Its accessible style makes the book relevant as both a course text and a resource for practicing teachers.

Soft cover. Etat : Very Good. 1st Edition. Paperback, xix + 264 pages, NOT ex-library. Book is clean and bright with unmarked text, free of inscriptions and stamps, firmly bound. A touch of wear to tips of corners. Straight uncreased spine. -- This book dismantles the myth of creativity as a rare gift reserved for artistic geniuses. Instead, it powerfully re-imagines the language classroom as a space where creativity is a daily, collaborative achievement. The central argument distinguishes between the lone genius of "Big C" creativity and the everyday "little c" creativity that sparks in the interactions between students and teachers. Drawing on real classroom discourse, the analysis reveals how activities like storytelling, drama, and digital projects become vibrant sites for co-constructing meaning. This work is not just a theoretical treatise; it is a practical guide that equips educators to see, value, and cultivate the creative potential in every learner, transforming the classroom into an environment where students become more confident and capable communicators.
