Confidence! Its Role in the Creative Teaching and Learning of Design and Technology.
Davies, Trevor
Journal of Technology Education, v12 n1 p18-31 Fall 2000
Personal Construct Theory framed a study of three secondary design/technology teachers and six students. Teachers were insecure about their understanding of creativity and professional role. Risk-taking teachers felt prepared to challenge students. Concerns that students avoid failure resulted in less challenge and risk. (Contains 32 references.) (SK)
