Description

In “Encouraging Creativity” Nicole Shannon explores why creative thinking is so important today, debunks creative myths, and shares activities you can use in your classroom.

In this 1-hour course, you will learn:

  • Core principles in creative thinking from thought leaders like Sir Ken Robinson, Michael Michalko and Ian Byrd
  • Practical strategies for inspiring your students to think creatively
  • The connection between creativity and long-term success for students
  • Strategies for using creativity to offset the stresses of standardized testing

      I felt that the presenter showed political bias in some ways, and I also felt that there were not a lot of things I could take back to my classroom and try. In other words, I didn’t get any new information from this course.
