Creative Partnerships CPD

February 13, 2009

I have been taking part in a 3 day training programme organised by Creative Partnerships to bring together creative practitioners and teachers in order to conceive innovative ways of getting creativity into the classroom. This has involved a largeĀ  variety of creative practicals, including dancing, artistic drama and tours of medieval churches.

Some interesting perspectives have been presented on how creativity can be fostered and some excellent definitions of what creativity is in the first place.

  1. Creativity is knowing what to do when you don’t know what to do
  2. C = O * F (creativity equals opportunity * functionality)
