 note = {This paper first provides a rationale for integrating creative thinking and writing along
with critical thinking and writing based on current educational policy stakeholders’
goals and initiatives. More specifically, four national and international educational
policymakers (i.e., MEXT, OECD, CEFR, and WEF) currently have established
objectives and goals for integrating creative thinking along with critical thinking as an
essential skill for learners to develop in the 21st century. The paper then illustrates a
road to creative thinking through a short story writing activity that naturally fits into the
English for Liberal Art program’s current curriculum. Finally, the paper concludes by
showing that not only do institutional stakeholders have a favorable view of integrating
creative thinking and writing but also 100% (n= 35/35) of student-authors strongly
agree/agree that short story writing should be included in the curriculum as well.},
