Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi (pronounced CHICK-sent-me-high-ee) is one of the world's leading authorities on creativity. In this video he sits down with Howard Gardner (MULTIPLE INTELLIGENCES) and presents the origins and implications of his revolutionary theory of FLOW. In sharp contrast to behaviorism, which he describes as simplistic, he explains how the FLOW is not that of 'go with the flow' by any means. On the contrary, far from being passive, Csikszentmihalyi illustrates why FLOW always involves the active use of skills to overcome challenges. Turning to a critical question of our times, he shifts his focus to education and persuasively argues how FLOW can positively impact learning environments.
