We believe that the Creative Process Framework (CPF) is a universal learning process essential for everyone to know, personalize, and develop, based on six phases: Explore, Engage, Express, Expand, Exchange, and Empower. These phases support creative problem solving, idea development, and project presentation.
What is the Creative Process Framework?
CPF is an educational framework that encompasses the essential elements of play, skill development, challenge, purpose, reflection, and social interaction. We provide a comprehensive approach to learning that allows for a holistic understanding of the creative process. Our complete curricula includes themes, outcomes, concepts, processes, content, and activities that promote art excellence and experiences.
CPF teaching and learning is designed to be inclusive and in-depth, offering multiple entry points and expansive exit products and possibilities. We believe in fostering a sense of inclusivity and ensuring that every individual can engage with the creative process in a way that suits their unique needs and aspirations. We firmly believe that commitment to one’s creative process cultivates empathy and connection. These are the ultimate goals of education and the foundation for innovation and positive cultural change.
Join us on a transformative journey through the six phases of the Creative Process:
- EXPLORE: Discover the limitations and possibilities that spark your imagination and creativity.
- ENGAGE: Consider the connections between ideas, concepts, and perspectives, fostering a deeper understanding of your creative endeavors.
- EXPRESS: Show and shout your unique voice, communicating your ideas and emotions through various artistic forms.
- EXPAND: Embrace change and growth, pushing the boundaries of your creativity and exploring new avenues of expression.
- EXCHANGE: Dare to share and care, collaborating with others and embracing the power of collective creativity.
- EMPOWER: Present and represent your creative achievements with confidence, becoming a catalyst for change and inspiring others through your work.
