Visual and Cognitive Learning Processes

Creativity may be involved in several domains such as art, literature, science, music or everyday life. The skills that are necessary in one creative domain may not be the same as those that are necessary in another. In this chapter, we will compare five domains of creativity: art, design, scriptwriting, music, and engineering. For each domain, we will describe a current model of the process and then present the results of observations of a class of students doing a project in a training context. 27 art students had 12 weeks to create freely a work of art; 27 design students had 7 weeks to create a graphic poster on a given topic; 6 students of scriptwriting and filmmaking studies had 8 weeks to create a script starting from a common theme; 5 music students had 6 weeks to create a piece of acoustic music; and 27 engineering science students had 8 weeks to propose six different layouts for a functional kitchen. We will discuss how these fields are similar or different.
