Wacom Learning Labs: Infusing Creativity into Classroom Routines
Tuesday, July 23 // 2:00 P.M. PDT
Our instructional time is valuable! Each day we struggle to get through everything that we need to in the classroom.
In this Learning Lab we will discuss the benefits of providing students opportunities to be creative. But wait, this is not just one more thing to do, let’s see how small shifts in what you are already doing can provide those opportunities to students.
Creative activities sprinkled throughout the day or week can be a great way to engage students and help them learn in a fun and creative way. We will look at common classroom routines and share ideas for infusing creativity into them. Come prepared with pen and paper or your Wacom drawing tablet so you can explore some creative activities during the webinar.
