The Initiative Classroom Thinktank is committed to promoting creativity as a central component of school learning. We support methods and approaches that stimulate the flow of creative ideas in schools and encourage unconventional thinking.
Our goal is to focus on the topic of fostering creativity in education and to make it more visible and popular in public. Through innovative principles and methods, we want to create a learning culture that not only imparts knowledge, but also develops the creativity of students and prepares them for the challenges of the future.
100 creative people rethink learning.
Our book "Classroom Thinktank. How to Foster Creativity in 21st Century Education" brings together the ideas of over 100 creative minds from 35 countries. It was published in English and is available in German from Vahlen Verlag, but can also be ordered directly from us HERE .
We make dream machines come true.
We are part of the MyMachine Global Network.
With the internationally multi-award-winning learning method “MyMachine”, we promote the creativity and entrepreneurial spirit of children and young people.
With MyMachine, young people learn that their ideas can be implemented – even if they seem crazy or impossible at first.
With MyMachine you´ll teach the importance of sharing ideas, experimenting and learning from mistakes. Students learn that through collaboration, respect for others' talents and perseverance, their visions can actually be realized. Our method helps them overcome fears that block their creativity.
In this way, we promote a spirit of innovation and the courage to change.
