Toku is interested in a practical part of creativity: being able to generate, combine and test possible approaches when a problem does not come with a script.
Children respond to the thinking environment
Even very young children generated more varied actions after observing more divergent demonstrations in experimental work.[1]
Older learners can practise idea generation too
Divergent-thinking training with adolescents has changed performance on idea-generation tasks.[2]
What Toku practises
Toku can ask children to search for another route, another pattern or another valid explanation, then compare which option works best.[2]
