Creativity and Critical Pedagogy in Education

Creativity and Critical Pedagogy in Education is a bold call to reimagine education as a powerful force that shapes learners into Socially Conscious Individuals (SCIs). At its heart is the CritiCreative Communication Framework (CCCF), a dynamic, learner-centered model where creativity and critical pedagogy come together to nurture socially sensitive, reflective, and ethically grounded minds. Rooted in Indian philosophy and aligned with National Education Policy (NEP) 2020, the book reimagines the classroom as a collaborative space for growth. The CCCF offers a timely response to the crisis of character in today's society. One of the book’s most innovative contributions is Creative Aerobics, a series of mental exercises designed to promote holistic brain development. The authors also explore the Four Ps of Creativity - Place, Person, Product, and Process, and integrate them with a structured and accessible approach to critical pedagogy. This book offers practical strategies to develop self-awareness, empathy, critical thinking, communication, and problem-solving. A valuable resource for educators and changemakers, it champions character, creativity, and consciousness in education.
