21st Century learners need 21st Century teachers, curriculum, and instruction. Our work is contemporary— but we also build on more than five decades of research, development, and field experience worldwide. We offer a wide variety of high-quality web-based and print resources, e-learning opportunities, workshops, and consulting services on Creativity and Creative Problem Solving (CPS). Our work focuses on methods and tools for generating ideas (“creative thinking”), focusing ideas (“critical thinking”) and systematic approaches to defining and solving complex, open-ended, real-life problems (Creative Problem Solving, Version 6.1™).

Plucker recently toured a number of such schools in Shanghai and Beijing. He was amazed by a boy who, for a class science project, rigged a tracking device for his moped with parts from a cell phone. When faculty of a major Chinese university asked Plucker to identify trends in American education, he described our focus on standardized curriculum, rote memorization, and nationalized testing. “After my answer was translated, they just started laughing out loud,” Plucker says. “They said, ‘You’re racing toward our old model. But we’re racing toward your model, as fast as we can.’ ”

Her response blew me away. "I ask my readers," she said. -

Social network sites, online games, video-sharing sites, and gadgets such as iPods and mobile phones are now fixtures of youth culture. They have so permeated young lives that it is hard to believe that less than a decade ago these technologies barely existed. Today’s youth may be coming of age and struggling for autonomy and identity as did their predecessors, but they are doing so amid new worlds for communication, friendship, play, and self-expression.
