ABSTRACT
This article describes a project undertaken with eighteen educators from diverse backgrounds. They were all students on an Open University accredited postgraduate course devised to support their capability in fostering learner creativity across the curriculum. An ethnomethodological approach was used to track the experiences and perceptions of the educators and to ground these in personal biography. The article reports themes arising from the data which throw light on educator perceptions of fostering creativity in learners. Finally the article suggests a number of elements highlighted by the project as potentially core to fostering educators' selfβperception of their ability to foster learner creativity across the curriculum.
