Education Through Service as a Factor Dynamising the Creative Activity of the Individual in the Education Process of Future Elementary Education Teachers

Summary/Abstract: The reflection undertaken in this article focuses on the issues of education through service and creative activity. The main objective is to determine to what extent education through service, incorporated in the process of students' education, is a factor that dynamises a person's creative activity, in the light of literature and the author's own empirical research. In reporting on the stated aim, two research problems are formulated: 1. How does education through service constitute a dynamising factor for a person's creative activity? 2. How, according to the students, does education through service affect their creative activity? In the first part of the article, a theoretical analysis of the structure of the educational and didactic strategy: education through service, was carried out in the context of factors that foster and motivate creative activity. In the second part, a qualitative analysis was made, using the hermeneutic method, of the statements of the students who participated in the project implemented within the educational strategy discussed. The conclusions formulated provide a basis for undertaking further empirical analyses in this area, and also enable the identification of education through service as an educational strategy that triggers and reinforces the need for creative activity in students - future teachers.
