Four Decades of Creative Vision: Insights from an Evaluation of the Future Problem Solving Program International (FPSPI)
Treffinger, Donald J.; Solomon, Marianne; Woythal, Deb
Journal of Creative Behavior, v46 n3 p209-219 Sep 2012
E. Paul Torrance, a pioneer in creative education, and his associates founded the Future Problem Solving Program (now FPSPI, or Future Problem Solving Program International) in the mid-1970s as a competitive, interscholastic program and as a curriculum project integrating creative problem-solving and future studies. Since its founding, the program has emerged to be international in scope, and has expanded to incorporate multiple components to engage students' creative strengths and talents in varied ways. This report presents highlights of an international evaluation of the program, the results of which support and sustain Torrance's creative vision for education. (Contains 2 tables.)
