Creative habits of mind

Creativity, Culture and Education has identified 5 ‘habits of mind’ as indicators of creativity:

1. Inquisitive: wondering and questioning; exploring and investigating; challenging assumptions.

2. Persistent: tolerating uncertainty; sticking with difficulty; daring to be different.

3. Imaginative: playing with possibilities; making connections; using intuition.

4. Disciplined: crafting and improving; developing techniques; reflecting critically.

5. Collaborative: cooperating appropriately; giving and receiving feedback; sharing the creative ‘product’.
