creative learning
Discovery-based knowledge acquisition
Creative learning is education that emphasizes imagination, experimentation, and active engagement over rote memorization.
Students in creative learning environments might solve open-ended problems, make connections across subjects, or produce original work rather than absorb predetermined answers: The school's creative learning approach let students design their own science experiments.
The term often signals progressive or arts-integrated pedagogy.
