CUELLO, Pablo  e  VIZCAYA, Morela M. USO DE TÉCNICAS DE ENSEÑANZA PARA DESARROLLAR EL POTENCIAL CREATIVO EN LOS ESTUDIANTES DEL PROGRAMA DE EDUCACIÓN INTEGRAL DE LA UPEL - IPB. Investigación y Postgrado [online]. 2002, vol.17, n.1, pp.83-113. ISSN 1316-0087.

The purpose of the following descriptive, qualitative and quantitative field study research was to identify the techniques used by teachers to develop the creative potential of students attending UPEL-IPB. Two types of samples were chosen for this study: A teacher's sample made up of 15 current program teachers. And out of 1500, a 94-student group was selected through stratified sampling. A Lickert scale questionnaire was designed and applied. Qualitative data was collected through a deep open-question interview, which was directed to the integral education teacher as a key informer of the integral education program, regarding how they stimulate creativity in class. Quantitative data analysis was made using descriptive statistics and qualitative data was analyzed by categories. The results determined that the teachers of the Integral Education Program do not use creative techniques very frequently in the development of their classes and express that they do not know the theoretical assumptions of creativity.
