> Helping higher education become a more creative place ... Bookings by
> Wednesday 20 April 2005
>
> The imaginative curriculum network is developing and piloting workshop
> methodologies to facilitate cross-disciplinary and within-disciplinary
> conversation about creativity in students' learning and how teachers
> design, teach and assess courses that enable students to be more
> creative. The products of these conversations are being accumulated to
> help advance our understanding about how creativity is perceived and
> supported in different teaching and learning contexts.
>
> On Friday 29 April the Centre for the Enhancement of Learning and
> Teaching, University of Hertfordshire, is offering a one day event to
> share the workshop methods and the results of piloting the approach.
>
> The event will provide workshop materials and ideas for engaging
> groups of teachers in structured conversation about what creativity
> means in their particular disciplinary and teaching contexts, and an
> opportunity to learn through the experience of participating in a
> workshop.
>
> After the event we hope that some participants will adapt and use the
> frameworks and tools
> to engage colleagues in their own institutions and departments and,
> through this, open up the idea of creativity in higher education
> learning to a wider community of practitioners.
