Jamming our way to better understandings of creativity in higher education
To "jam" is to improvise without extensive preparation. Using the 4C model of creativity developed by James Kaufman and Ron Beghetto as a framework, the aim of this session is to encourage participants to jam towards better shared understandings of what creativity means to us in the context of our everyday life and our disciplinary fields, and to share experiences of being creative. I will play my solo and then pass over to you for yours. But I will give you some notes to play with.
Useful resources relating to creativity in HE can be found on the Creative Academic website.
