This workshop will examine a variety of ways of embedding creativity within higher education settings. Bronfenbrenner's ecological framework will be used to suggest that creative individuals act on their environment, and that the environment dynamically influences individuals and groups to seize creative educational opportunities.
Using a series of interactive activities and tools, the place of creativity in higher education will be explored by:
the critical examination of current educational philosophies and values
considering innovative ways of working within higher education institutions and systems
developing flexibility in higher education programmes
indexing creativity within subject domains and disciplines
encouraging divergence and creative thinking in higher education teachers and students.
