Description
Teaching and Learning Creatively: Inspirations and Reflections
offers a glimpse into a Clemson University project that fostered poetry writing in courses across the curriculum and grew to include visual and other kinds of creative responses. Teaching and Learning Creatively offers poetry and images composed by students in a variety of disciplines, together with teachers’ reflections on their students’ achievements. These assignments shift the usual dynamics of teaching and learning, allowing students to teach teachers as well as each other, as they search for new forms of creative expression. Such collaboration shows that communication across the curriculum refers not only to the need for writing and creativity in all courses in college, but also to the expanded forms of communication and new ways of making discoveries that grow from experimental, and even playful, pedagogy. Teaching and Learning Creatively will inspire teachers to experiment in their own classrooms, to find new ways of listening to their students.
