Ron has authored several popular books, including most recently: Beautiful Risks: Having the Courage to Teach and Learn Creatively. Ron explains why all students need to be creative thinkers. He talks about whether creativity is a generic skill, and how – or if – we should assess it in school. Transcript available at: http://bit.ly/edspressoep7
