Description
In this research, we aim at the gradual improvement and the satisfactory formation of an innovative teaching intervention plan for teaching literature in the third class of Music High School. This intervention plan systematically integrates music to literature teaching, in order to reinforce participants’ (students’ and teachers’) creativity.This research is basically based on theory about Creativity, Creative Pedagogics and on Interart / Intermediality Study and Practice, concerning the correlation between literature and music. The combination of these two scientific fields raises the prospect of an interart aspect of Creative Literature Didactics. On the basis of this theoretical framework and driven by some predetermined indications of creative thinking and behavior, a qualitative research was carried out, in the third class of a Music High School in Attica. Assessing the results, we point out that several findings of practical and theoretical significance emerge.
