The purpose of this paper is to better understand the role of group-based prototyping workshops in unlocking latent creativity or stimulating creative expression in adults. Our findings indicate that hands-on exercises might be an effective way to unleash creativity in adults who perceive themselves predominantly as non-creatives. The heterogeneity of groups positively affected the level of creativity as a collective process.

Namen tega prispevka je bolje razumeti vlogo skupinske prototipne delavnice pri spodbujanju latentne ustvarjalnosti. Rezultati nakazujejo, da so lahko praktične vaje učinkovit način za spodbujanje ustvarjalnosti pri odraslih, ki se sami sicer pretežno dojemajo kot neustvarjalne. Na stopnjo ustvarjalnosti kot skupinskega procesa je pozitivno vplivala heterogenost skupin.
