Placing Students at the Heart of Creative Learning shows teachers
of key stages 2 and 3 how to introduce creativity into what is
often seen as a prescriptive and stifling curriculum, and addresses
the tensions that can exist between the requirement to follow the
curriculum and the desire to employ innovative pedagogies. It
offers readers a range of practical and realistic ways that
curriculum changing ideas can be applied to individual projects,
classrooms and even entire schools. This book tracks the
imaginative initiatives undertaken by six schools as they have
worked to change their curriculum and teaching in order to put
student experiences at the core of the learning process. Stating
its observations and suggestions in a refreshingly straightforward
and practicable manner, this book explores: Why a new creative
curriculum is needed for the 21st century How to encourage teachers
and pupils to 'own' the curriculum The role that pupil voice plays
in a creative curriculum The environment needed to creatively
manipulate the curriculum How to introduce innovation to teaching
practice What actually works - considering the limits and
possibilities of creative pedagogy Providing case studies and
examples of the ways in which teachers have delivered the
curriculum in a creative way, Placing Students at the Heart of
Creative Learning is an invaluably beneficial guide for all those
involved in engaging and teaching young people in key stages 2 and
3.
