HUMI 1H
Creative Minds - HONORS

Course Description

This course is an introduction to the study of creativity in human life; its sources, development, social purpose, and role in culture change. Students analyze creativity as a central source of meaning and purpose in their lives as well as a development of their unique combination of human intelligences. Lives of creative people from all over the world are examined and contextualized. The course builds commitment to civic and moral responsibility for diverse, equitable, healthy and sustainable communities. Students engage themselves as members of larger social fabrics and develop the abilities and motivation to take informed action for change. Because this is an honors course, students will be expected to complete additional assignments of greater depth and breadth, or order to gain increased insight into the study of creativity.
