Project Brief
Creativity and innovation have a powerful presence in educational philosophy. Emphasis on creativity as a 21st century skill that students need to be successful in the real world is a big part of the conversation. While most educators agree that teaching creativity is important, there are very few tools that exist to support the teaching and assessment of creativity in the classroom. “Cultivating Creativity” is a tool that was developed to guide students and educators through the biography of an idea. Students use four categories to record and reflect upon their creative endeavors. This powerful blueprint not only makes creative thinking visible, but offers students and teachers the opportunity to draw conclusions and assess creative experiences in the classroom.

EVIDENCE OF LEARNING
|
Our experiences in the shadow group have been extremely
positive. We all did our best to keep the “yes and” mentality from improv
acting so we could help each other build our ideas to the height of their
potential and we all intuitively supported each other through the sheer
compatibility of all the energy we brought to the class. When we fell down (like
Kenzie, pictured to the right), we were always there to help each other up and
really forced each other to keep relentless optimism throughout the whole
experience. We learned specific techniques from each other too, including
footwork and how to stay in sync with each other, even when we’re not looking
at each other. All in all, we worked together and managed to create a piece of
art we are very proud of. We are extremely excited for our presentation on
Monday!
