EDUX 705XL Creativity in the Classroom

The Creativity in the Classroom series consists of five engaging workshops including drawing painting, ceramics, dance, music, drama, poetry and playmaking. The series is designed for those new to teaching the visual and performing arts as well as those with a full range of experience. In the course, participants explore their own creativity and gain skills and knowledge to integrate a variety of arts disciplines into language arts, social studies, science and math. They are introduced to the Visual and Performing Arts Content Standards and explore discussion strategies that apply to the arts and to all student work. Strong emphasis is placed on practices that support the creation of a safe supportive environment for creative exploration and expression. Community Building and English Language Development strategies are part of each session. The course is appropriate for classroom teachers, teaching artists and other interested community members.
