This document discusses the importance of creativity and innovation in education. It notes that the future demands creative approaches, and that creativity involves encoding, selecting, and recombining existing ideas. While creativity was once seen as a gift to few, it is now an economic and personal imperative. The document advocates for educating students in skills like collaboration, critical thinking, initiative and adapting to change. Schools are highlighted as powerful community resources that can foster creativity if they protect childhood and enable civic partnerships and local innovation. Overall, the document argues for nurturing creativity in students and making space for "hackers and makers".
