Teacher’s creativity: the relation between the subjective sense of creativity and the project practice

We tried to understand the relation between the teacher’s subjective sense of creativity and the project teaching practice. The historical cultural view of subjectivity provides the theoretical background through the ideas developed by González Rey. We adopted the method of case study, with two teachers that use projects as a teaching and apprenticeship strategy in the same school. Many instruments were used like the technique of completing sentences, text writing, direct observation, document analysis and - the main one - the interview as a process. As the most important conclusion, a recursive relation was found. The research also shows that the subjective sense of the contextual aspects - like the subjective sense of the classroom - is mediating the studied relation. Finally, we noted that conflicts and contradictions experienced in the project practice represent a potential situation for the development of the teacher‘s subjective sense of creativity and the teaching practice itself.
