Gyeongbuk Office of Education Selects 62 Nationwide Top 'Creative Convergence Leading Schools'

"Cultivating Creative Thinking Skills"

On the 15th, the Gyeongbuk Office of Education announced that it has selected 62 kindergartens, elementary, middle, and high schools across the province to operate the nation’s first "Creative Convergence EduPark Leading Schools."

The "Creative Convergence EduPark" refers to all spaces where educational activities can be conducted by linking various experience centers under the Gyeongbuk Office of Education with related local institutions and educational facilities.

This project supports various out-of-school experiential activities utilizing the Creative Convergence EduPark and connects these activities with the school curriculum to support diverse educational activities within schools.

Additionally, to foster students’ convergent thinking, it provides opportunities for school educational activities to be linked with experiential activities. Through this, students can gain new knowledge and experiences beyond the school curriculum and develop creative thinking and problem-solving skills.

Lim Jong-sik, Superintendent of the Gyeongbuk Office of Education, stated, “Recognizing the importance of creative convergence education to cultivate the competencies of students living in the future, we have promoted the Creative Convergence EduPark Leading Schools. Through this project, we hope to provide students with opportunities for various experiential activities not only within schools but also outside, thereby fostering creative thinking and problem-solving abilities.”
