As a means to develop Canadian economic security, more attention in the last decade has been given to supporting the creative economy and building Canadian creative capacity. One of the stumbling blocks to nurturing the growth of creativity is the popular belief that creativity is innate. Research refutes this dated notion; What is lacking are explanations of strategies and pedagogical practices for researchers and learners to engage in, to enable them to begin to see themselves as creative. This paper focuses on the procedural steps and possibilities of a creative process called the Catechization Process. This work stems from the Parallaxic Praxis Model wherein investigations take place through arts-making. In this explanation, We share seven response poems created in the Catechization Process to theorize the imaginative space of producing knowledge through creative inquiry. When researchers can imagine themselves as creative and experimenting with new strategies for generating new ideas, their work will open new possibilities for understanding.
