Abstract

RAMEY, CRAlC T., and PIPER, VERA. Creativity in Open and Traditional Classrooms. CHILD DEVELOPMENT, 1974, 45, 557-560. The effects of open and traditional classrooms on creative expression were investigated using 60 children randomly drawn from grades 1, 4, and 8 from 2 different school systems. Measures derived from the Torrance Tests of Creative Thinking indicated that the open classroom setting was related to superior performance on the figural component of that test, whereas the traditional classroom setting was related to superior performance in verbal creativity.
