"Divided into four sections -- 'Understanding Creativity, ' 'The
Creative Learning Environment, ' 'Teaching Creativity, ' and 'Tools
and Resources To Develop Student Creativity' -- the book
systematically explains the need for students to create and
provides a wealth of resources for teachers." -- Laura Fields
Eason, School Library Journal
"Gura systematically provides a wide-view lens concerning [topics]
like "What is creativity . . . and can it be taught?" and [getting]
"from creativity to innovation and problem solving," and then zooms
in to capture the details teachers want to know. He does this very
effectively through interviews with real, in-the-field practicing
teachers who are able to pinpoint the concerns that impact
creativity in the classroom." -- Amber Chandler, Getting Smart
"Wide-reaching in scope but specific in many of its approaches,
Make, Learn, Succeed is a top recommendation for teachers and comes
from an educator with some three decades of experience to his
name." -- Midwest Book Review
