Summary/Abstract: Deliberate educational activities are indispensable in shaping people’s creative attitudes, in developing their abilities, talents and interests, from pre-school and early school age onwards. A constructive approach to educational tasks built on positive psychology is developed by educators representing the development pedagogy / positive pedagogy strand. Improving the teacher’s ability to teach using active teaching/learning methods is the basis for an effective workshop. One of the important ways of improving it is designing authoring programmes. This activity is creative in nature and such attitudes should be shaped in teachers in the course of improving their methodological workshop. With regard to both students and teachers, it can be said that it is education that builds the person. The aim of this article is to present and discuss the author’s programmes of developing pupils’ abilities and shaping their talents, included in subject publications and selected programmes presented at educational forums for teachers and parents. It is worth emphasising that it is not common practice for teachers to improve their teaching skills through their own original creations, especially in the construction of educational programmes. It is therefore important to create awareness among teachers that it is possible to undertake such (creative) activities, both for their own development, but above all for the development of pupils. Authorial programmes for the development of children’s abilities and the shaping of talents are the best example here.
