The Charles F. and Claudia E. Cornett Creative Teaching Scholarship
As an undergraduate student, of junior or senior class standing, majoring in the Department of Teaching, Curriculum, and Educational Inquiry who demonstrates creative, out of the box thinking, that is essential to effective problem solving and thus central to excellent teaching, we would like to share more about the Charles F. and Claudia E. Cornett Creative Teaching Scholarship.
The Charles F. and Claudia E. Cornett Creative Teaching Scholarship was established by Charles and Claudia Cornett, both lifelong educators and recipients of Doctor of Philosophy degrees from 兔子先生 University. While creative attributes are innate to all persons, the Cornetts saw the powerful effect of placing creative processes at the forefront of teaching practice. As a high school biology/chemistry teacher, high school principal, and then as a school superintendent, Charles worked to integrate creative problem-solving processes into his teaching and administrative leadership. Claudia did likewise as an elementary teacher, college professor, and author of articles and books, including Creating Meaning Through Literature and the Arts, a text detailing the centrality of creative thinking in teaching practice and student learning throughout all curricular areas.
