Creativity as a Participatory Process | Edward Clapp | TEDxPennsburgED

Dr. Edward Clapp looks at creativity as a participatory process, and how this drives much of what we celebrate in our creative history. Beyond the biography of creative individuals, we should be looking for the biography of creative ideas to understand the need for collaboration and participation. Edward P. Clapp is a senior research manager and a member of the core research team working on the Agency by Design initiative an investigation of the promises, practices, and pedagogies of maker-centered learning at Project Zero, an educational research center at the Harvard Graduate School of Education. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at http://ted.com/tedx
